The Central Coast Film Society (CCFS) presents Guillermo del Toro’s 2006 masterpiece Pan’s Labyrinth as a fundraiser on Oct. 18.
The film has been called an Alice in Wonderland for grown-ups, and follows Ofelia (Ivana Baquero), who might be the reincarnation of Princess Moanna, whose father is the king of the underworld and who built labyrinths around the world to act as portals to the underworld so his daughter may find her way back home.
