Pedro Almodóvar / Spain, USA / 2024 / 107 min / English

Ingrid and Martha were close friends in their youth, but life separated them: Ingrid became a writer, and Martha a war correspondent. After years without contact, they meet again under unusual circumstances... Pedro Almodóvar's latest creation is a story about the beauty of life and the inevitability of death, full of colour, light, and humour. The film won the Golden Lion in Venice and earned Tilda Swinton a Golden Globe nomination.
