**Screenwriters**: Guillermo del Toro, Antonio Trashorras, David Muñoz **Producers**: Agustín Almodóvar, Bertha Navarro A gothic ghost story, an elegant political allegory, a chilling coming of age tale – Guillermo Del Toro’s *The Devil’s Backbone* is all this and more. After losing his father, 10-year-old Carlos (Fernando Tielve) arrives at the Santa Lucia School, which shelters orphans of the Republican militia and politicians, and is taken in by the steely headmistress, Carmen (Marisa Paredes), and the kindly professor, Casares (Federico Luppi). Soon after his arrival, Carlos has a run-in with the violent caretaker, Jacinto (Eduardo Noriega). Gradually, Carlos uncovers the secrets of the school, including the youthful ghost that wanders the grounds. **Accessibility Options**: Open Captions, Amplified Audio, please see the box office for devices.
