Set in 1940s Spain against the postwar repression of Franco's Spain, 'Pan's Labyrinth' is a fairy tale that centers on Ofelia, a lonely and dreamy child living with her mother and adoptive father, who is a military officer tasked with controlling the guerillas who are still in rebellion. In her loneliness, Ofelia comes to realize a world filled with fantastical creatures and secret destinies.  Is it her imagination, or is it truly a world which only the pure and innocent can see?  With Fascism at its height, Ofelia tries to come to terms with her world through a fable of her own creation.
