Merolliv I really wanted to like this movie. I feel terribly cynical trashing it, and that's why I'm giving it a middling 5. Actually, I'm giving it a 5 because there were some superb performances.

Neive Bellamy Excellent and certainly provocative... If nothing else, the film is a real conversation starter.

Payno I think this is a new genre that they're all sort of working their way through it and haven't got all the kinks worked out yet but it's a genre that works for me.

Billy Ollie Through painfully honest and emotional moments, the movie becomes irresistibly relatable

caste78 The winter of 1967 has almost gone. Laura, a 9-year old girl is found dead in a marsh near to an orphanage in the middle of the Pirineos. A month later, Marco arrives to the town and settles in the attic of a old house far at the mountain. Julia, orphanage's headmistress, notes a strange events concerning Monica, Laura's roommate. It's a place where the little girl is attracted at the same time that is scared, because she thinks, Laura is still there...I haven't seen too many Spanish movies, mainly this kind of genre. Let me say that this film is quite good. A couple of days before I saw the poster of this film on the wall of a video-rental store, it looked interesting, I came inside and red the summary behind the box,(at the top this comment), it really looked interesting, so that, I rented it. What's a surprise when I was watching it. Throughout the film the plot was increasing more and more. I think the whole cast were good, nice performance, and good scary shots. In a first time after the screen faded at the end of the movie, I was thinking about a different ending, "the direction could have worked more about it, because, it's hard to believe that the ghost just would want stay besides her dead relatives... perhaps there was a murderer amongst the people". I was dead certain it could have been better, but, in a different way, a murderer in the movie became the film a Spanish version of Gotica, that is the reason why It graded it 8/10.May be people didn't like the ending, but if you see in a different point of view, you will see that the film is quite original. I recommend this film for anyone wants to have a good time.

Juan I was to the cinema looking for something different, not as easy as going to see babel or another great productions. And i was surprised with this well-done piece, made with a few money and without too much trailers on TV.The thing is that the cold in the movie affects you. It's cold in Pirineos and specially in 1967. And you are cold in your seat. The beginning in the movie is slowly and the end is in my opinion, too much aseptic. But there are really interesting sequences along the film, and history become interesting for a moments.I like Spanish cinema in general, but i am a little tired of seeing the same faces doing similar papers in all the Spanish movies. But i didn't know any actor in this. A pair of secondaries, nothing else.Well, I recommend you if you like frighten amazing movies. A 7. Let's see what this Pablo is able to do.
