The Orphanage (El Orfanato)
The Orphanage (El Orfanato)
Doting mother Laura, who was raised in an orphanage, returns to the grand house of her youth with the intention of renovating the crumbling property as a home for disabled and disadvantaged children. Her husband Carlos and seven-year-old son Simon support her in this altruistic endeavour. Laura grows increasingly concerned about Simon, who seems to be more interested in his imaginary friend than the real world. Soon after, Simon vanishes without a trace, plunging Laura and Carlos into the midst of every parent's worst nightmare.
