Sad, but beautiful
Here to offset the freak (bruuuse). It was a good movie. Not entirely horror but a really good watch, kept me glued to the screen. It was like stepping into my childhood imagination with layers of disturbance and violence.
Had put off watching it as it dealt with some grim subject matter but I’ve been quite impressed with some Spanish language horror delights on Shudder lately that I gave it a go. I like how the whole thing is shown through the eyes of a child you’re viewing it through the lens of a child’s magical imagination of the abuse she and others are suffering at an institution. Sad to hear that although a fictional film that it is inspired by real events.
I quite enjoyed this one, reminded me of lovely bones. ,. . . only a LOT more infuriating stupid adults in here
A beautiful yet heartbreaking dark fantasy film
