OBSCURO presents Carlos Enrique Taboada’s HASTA EL VIENTO TIENE MIEDO (Even The Wind Is Afraid), in Spanish with English subtitles. Starring acclaimed Mexican actress Marga Lopez. The film is the first of Taboada’s Gothic Tetralogy released in 1968.
At an all girls boarding school a secret haunts the campus. Claudia’s (Alicia Bonet) recurring nightmares lead her to discover the ugly truth. The strict headmistress and the alumni are all wrapped up in a phantasmagoric mystery. Stylish and groundbreaking for its time, the film is a hidden gem of Mexican horror. Please stay after the screening for a discussion about the director’s work and themes from the film.
