The characters and creatures created as part of the grand tradition of fantasy literature have offered a constant source of inspiration for the great filmmakers who have tackled this genre. J. A. Bayona, currently one of the most relevant names in fantasy film, speaks with Àngel Sala, director of the Sitges International Fantasy Film Festival of Catalonia. From the invisible friends of The Orphanage to the unique teacher of A Monster Calls, by way of the compendium of gothic literature Penny Dreadful, Bayona tells stories that explore the other side of the mirror. And of the impossible which is also real.
