About
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.
Young Leonora becomes obsessed with a monster she believes haunts a local barn, seeking refuge from the stifling silence of post-war Spain. This haunting fable uses childhood wonder to mirror the fractured psyche of a nation recovering from trauma.
