Del Toro continues his use of otherworldly creatures to explore what is is to be human in his new film The Shape of Water. The official synopsis:

…an other-worldly 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 is trapped in a life of silence and isolation. Elisa’s life is changed forever when she and co-worker Zelda discover a secret classified experiment.
