From the master story teller, Guillermo del Toro, comes The Shape of Water -an other- wordly fairy tale, set against the backdrop of Cold War era America circa 1963.
In the hidden high-security government laboratory where she works, lonely Elisa (Sally Hawkins) is trapped in a life of silence and isolation.
Elisa's life is changed forever when she and co-worker Zelda (Octavia Spencer) discover a secret classified experiment.
