Guillermo del Toro mixes history and fantasy as only he can in this gripping Oscar-winner. Set in Spain during the early Francoist era, it follows a young girl, played by Ivana Baquero, into a mythical universe. “Bewitchingly bonkers,” is how critic Nigel Andrews described the film in his review for Financial Times.
