Spanish Trailer 'Mary Anning'

'[FILM]' is a family animated film directed by Marcel Barelli that sensitively imagines the childhood of a real science pioneer.

Set in 1811, it follows Mary Anning, a curious 12-year-old girl who explores the coast collecting fossils (those "stones from another time") that her father teaches her to treasure like relics from the past.

Mary's life takes an unexpected turn when her father dies unexpectedly, leaving her a mysterious drawing and plunging her family into hardship. Determined to help her mother and brother, the girl embarks on a dual journey: a literal one, from the beach to the cliffs in search of clues; and an emotional one, of discovery and personal growth.

In her quest to decipher the mystery of the drawing, Mary not only finds new fossils, but also unexpected friendships, unforgettable adventures and the first glimmers of what will become modern palaeontology, the field of science that will later change the way we understand life on Earth.

The film celebrates the determination, courage and imagination of a girl who, despite her young age, has the strength of will to look beyond the present.

Although aimed at a young audience, its story connects with universal values such as perseverance in the face of adversity, the importance of learning from nature and the role of women in the construction of scientific knowledge.
