In 1940, in the immediate aftermath of the Spanish Civil War, a young girl living on the Castilian plain is haunted after attending a screening of James Whale's 1931 film Frankenstein and hearing from her sister that the monster is not dead, instead existing as a spirit inhabiting a nearby barn.

Good movie about children's world and believes with magnificent Fernando Fernán Gómez and really good performance from Ana Torrent. The script is *really* good and depicts pretty well a stage in Spanish countryside life after the civil war. A must to be seen.

Me enamoré de esta película. Tan profunda, tan tierna y vivaz. Quizá porque apela a esa ingenua imaginación que todos tuvimos alguna vez. Esa imaginación que nos permitía ir más allá, ser realmente libres y escapar de la colmena en la que vivíamos. ¿Dónde quedaron aquellos dulces momentos? Probablemente no volverán, pero conviene recordar que un espíritu no puede morir. Que TU espíritu no puede morir. _Si eres su amigo, puedes hablar con él cuando quieras. Solo cierra los ojos y llámalo..._ **Muera el franquismo y toda forma de fascismo.** I fell in love with this film. So profound, so tender and full of life. Perhaps because it speaks to that naïve imagination we all once had. That imagination that allowed us to go beyond, to be truly free, and to escape the hive we lived in. Where did those sweet moments go? They will probably never return, but it is worth remembering that a spirit cannot die. That YOUR spirit cannot die. _If you are its friend, you can speak to it whenever you wish. Just close your eyes and call for it..._ **Death to francoism and every form of fascism.**
