The Orphanage, presented by Oscar-Nominee Guillermo Del Toro,
centers on a Laura (Belén Rueda from The Sea Inside)
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 son's imagination, but
the ongoing fantasy games he plays with an invisible friend
