Pan's Labyrinth (15) | The Independent It's a truism that fairy tales aren't so much about entertaining children as about leaving them with permanent emotional scars, but few of them can be as gruelling as Pan's Labyrinth, a fantasy-tinged drama which is like Alice In Wonderland with extra torture and amputation. It's set in northern Spain in 1944, when 11-year-old Ofelia (the magnetic Ivana Baquero) moves to a remote military base so that her widowed mother can be with her new husband, the supremely merciless Captain Vidal (Sergi Lopez). His job is to root a band of anti-Franco resistance fighters out of the adjacent forest, and it's a job he undertakes with bloodthirsty enthusiasm. But there may be a way for Ofelia to escape from her wicked stepfather. One night she visits an ancient maze in the base's grounds, where a faun tells her that she's actually a fairy princess, and that if she can complete three magical tasks she can reclaim her throne in the underworld.
