Open Your Eyes

Directed by Alejandro Amenábar

The second feature from twenty-something director Amenábar, ‘the Spanish Hitchcock’, OPEN YOUR EYES is a hypnotic thriller that explores the blurred borderlines between dreams and reality, madness and sanity. Following an accident, a handsome, wealthy young man finds that his face has been disfigured and his women-chasing days over – or so it seems. OPEN YOUR EYES features a quartet of Spain’s hottest young actors, including Penélope Cruz of ALL ABOUT MY MOTHER.
