About The Legend of the Nahuala
Leo San Juan, an insecure child of nine years old, lives eternally frightened by horror stories that Nando tells his older brother. Within these stories it is 'The Legend of Nahuala', according to which, an old abandoned Casona is possessed by the spirit of an evil witch known as the Nahuala.
Directed by Ricardo Arnaiz, The Legend of the Nahuala leans on a strong ensemble — Fabrizio Santini, Martha Higareda, Andrés Bustamante — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.
The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about family titles of 2007.
