Spain/Mexico
Feature Film
Original Title: El orfanato
Director: Juan Antonio Bayona
Writer: Sergio G. Sánchez
Cinematographer: Óscar Faura
Composer: Fernando Velázquez
Cast: Belén Rueda, Fernando Cayo, Roger Príncep, Mabel Rivera, Montserrat Carulla, Andrés Gertrúdix, Edgar Vivar
Bayona’s diverting ghost story, a tale about a young mother who after the disappearance of her young son becomes convinced that his imaginary friends are to blame, is a well-made and often surprising film that, unfortunately, never quite feels credible enough to deliver the visceral punch that the genre demands.
