PAN'S LABYRINTHRated R, 118 min
An Academy Award–winning dark fable set five years after the end of the Spanish Civil War, “Pan’s Labyrinth” encapsulates the rich visual style and genre-defying craft of Guillermo del Toro. Eleven-year-old Ofelia comes face to face with the horrors of fascism when she and her pregnant mother are uprooted to the countryside, where her new stepfather, a sadistic captain in General Francisco Franco’s army, hunts down Republican guerrillas refusing to give up the fight. The violent reality in which Ofelia lives merges seamlessly with her fantastical interior world when she meets a faun in a decaying labyrinth and is set on a strange, mythic journey that is at once terrifying and beautiful. In his revisiting of this bloody period in Spanish history, del Toro creates a vivid depiction of the monstrosities of war infiltrating a child’s imagination and threatening the innocence of youth. In Spanish with English subtitles.
Winner of three Academy Awards (Cinematography, Art Direction, and Makeup).
A special presentation on the eve of Halloween. Admission is free.
