International Lens Film: O Apóstolo

Posted by on Thursday, January 23, 2014 in Activities Everyone.

Presented by Maria Paz Pintane, Senior Lecturer in Spanish
Spain (2012) Dir. Fernando Cortizo. A gothic mystery and a dark adult fairy tale wonderfully realized through stop-motion animation. The world created is meticulously detailed and characters are brought to life by a cast of talented voice actors… Cortizo builds a palpably chilling atmosphere  and injects the story with real myths and a dry, dark wit. The film also features a memorable performance by the late and legendary Paul Naschy and an alluring theme song by Philip Glass. (Brian Kelley) Short listed for animated feature Oscar consideration. Castilian with English subtitles. No rating (mature audiences). 87 min. DVD. Takes place in Sarratt Cinema.
