Finally delivering his long-dreamed project to adapt Mary Shelley’s novel, del Toro demonstrates his vision with an extraordinary ensemble of collaborators – both in front of and behind the camera. In an isolated tower, Victor Frankenstein works furiously on an experiment to reanimate the recently dead. In doing so, he sets off a deadly sequence of events. Like the novel, del Toro’s film shifts perspectives from creator to creature, all the while grappling with philosophical issues such as the complexities of human relationships and the very meaning of life.
The screening on Wednesday 27 May will be presented with Descriptive Subtitles and Audio Description will be available.
The IMAX screening of Frankenstein on Sunday 10 May will be introduced by Guillermo del Toro.
Waterloo Bridge (near BFI Southbank) will be closed on 7 June Sunday between 7am and 7pm. BFI Southbank will be closed Tuesday 23 and Wednesday 24 June due to a private event.
