1
00:00:42,489 --> 00:00:48,860
Spain, 1944

2
00:00:50,063 --> 00:00:51,431
The Civil War is over.

3
00:00:51,431 --> 00:00:53,567
Hidden in the mountains,

4
00:00:53,567 --> 00:00:55,769
armed men are still fighting
the new Fascist regime.

5
00:00:55,769 --> 00:00:58,033
Military posts are established
to exterminate the Resistance.

6
00:01:21,128 --> 00:01:24,928
A long time ago,

7
00:01:27,167 --> 00:01:31,968
in the Underground Realm,
where there are no lies or pain,

8
00:01:33,039 --> 00:01:37,032
there lived a princess who dreamt
of the human world.

9
00:01:39,045 --> 00:01:44,244
She dreamt of blue skies,
soft breeze and sunshine.

10
00:01:49,356 --> 00:01:50,550
One day,

11
00:01:51,291 --> 00:01:54,920
eluding her keepers,
the princess escaped.

12
00:01:59,800 --> 00:02:02,826
Once outside...

13
00:02:03,303 --> 00:02:06,932
the bright sun blinded her
and erased her memory.

14
00:02:09,876 --> 00:02:13,073
She forgot who she was
and where she came from.

15
00:02:13,547 --> 00:02:19,782
Her body suffered cold, sickness and pain.
And eventually she died.

16
00:02:21,121 --> 00:02:23,351
However, her father, the king,

17
00:02:23,657 --> 00:02:26,683
always knew that the Princess' soul
would return,

18
00:02:27,194 --> 00:02:28,661
perhaps in another body,

19
00:02:29,329 --> 00:02:31,854
in another place, at another time.

20
00:02:32,265 --> 00:02:35,792
He would wait for her,
until he drew his last breath,

21
00:02:36,136 --> 00:02:39,435
until the world stopped turning.

22
00:02:48,315 --> 00:02:50,806
Why did you bring
so many books, Ofelia?

23
00:02:50,984 --> 00:02:53,578
We're going to the country,
the outdoors.

24
00:02:59,092 --> 00:03:00,753
Fairy tales?

25
00:03:01,161 --> 00:03:05,257
You're a bit too old to be filling your head
with such nonsense.

26
00:03:08,335 --> 00:03:10,235
Ask him to stop the car.
