The Orphanage centers on Laura
(Belén Rueda) who purchases her beloved childhood
orphanage with dreams of restoring and reopening the long
abandoned facility as a place for disabled children. Once there,
Laura discovers that the new environment awakens her sons
imagination, but the ongoing fantasy games he plays with an
invisible friend quickly turn into something more disturbing.
Upon seeing her family increasingly threatened by the strange
occurrences in the house, Laura looks to a group of
parapsychologists for help in unraveling the mystery that has
taken over the place.
Haunting and heartbreaking,
The Orphanage delivers a double whammy of chills both real and
supernatural. Jamie Russell, BBC
