Upper Sixth BFI Spanish Trip

On Friday 10 January our Upper Sixth Spanish group met up in London to visit the British Film Institute for a study day for our A-level film ‘El Laberinto del Fauno’, or, in English, ‘Pan’s Labyrinth’. During the study session we were given lots of detailed information which we used as a basis for making notes. The in-depth analysis of the film helped us when it came to writing our essays. We had our lunch by the Southbank Riverside, which was very peaceful until a large group of pigeons started following us! During the afternoon we watched the film on the big screen, which was very  atmospheric. Overall the trip was thoroughly enjoyable, and we gained a greater understanding of some of the themes and techniques used in this amazing film.
