THE SHAPE OF WATER | OmU

USA 2017 | 123′ | Screenplay Vanessa Taylor together with director and producer Guillermo del Toro | with Sally Hawkins, Michael Shannon, Richard Jenkins, Octavia Spencer, Doug Jones, Michael Stuhlbarg a.o.

This enchanting romance is set in the early 1960s. A mute cleaner falls in love with a caged, maltreated amphibian creature at her workplace, a U.S. secret laboratory. The archaic creature and the outsider recognize, free and save each other in a magical way….

The film won numerous awards including four Oscars, two Golden Globe Awards, four Critics’ Choice Movie Awards, the Golden Lion in Venice.
For Guillermo del Toro, THE SHAPE OF WATER calls his most personal film: “I love it. I call it a fairy tale for troubled times because it acts as a kind of salve against the world in which we wake up every morning with worse news.”
