Winner of the Golden Lion at the Venice Biennale, Pedro Almodóvar’s English-language debut stars Tilda Swinton and Julianne Moore as estranged friends, reunited when one becomes unwell – leading to an extreme and unexpected request.
After years apart, author Ingrid (Moore) visits her terminally ill friend, war reporter Martha (Swinton), in the hospital. As they share stories their bond is rekindled, leading Martha to make a challenging request of Ingrid. With his signature exquisite visual style and led by two masterful performances, two-time Oscar winner Pedro Almodóvar’s latest is a surprisingly joyful rumination on mortality and human connection.
