Barcelona-based filmmaker Abigail Schaaff is at the helm of the upcoming The Monster of Many Noses, and Variety brings us a first look at the unique genre title today.
Filmax has come on board the movie, Variety reports this afternoon, which is said to blend together the “fantasy genre and local lore to large social point.”
“Connecting 1960s Spain to its 1930s, the decade of Spain’s Civil War whose atrocities were silenced as the price of transition to democracy in 1970s Spain, The Monster of Many Noses (“L’home dels lassos”) is set in 1968 in a small village in the mountains.
“Three children try to escape the so-called Man of Many Noses, a figure in Catalan lore who hunts down children who have told too many lies on the last day of the year. But the children aren’t the only ones who fear him. Lies from the past can also be smelled.
