OUTDOOR SCREENING

Mujeres al Borde de un Ataque de Nervios

Pedro Almodóvar, 1988, Spain, 88', ENG subs

EN Pedro Almodóvar’s films are notoriously difficult to write a synopsis for, with plot twists that will leave you spinning. So, simply expect high melodrama, irreverent humor, and a vibrant visual style like no other. With an ensemble cast including Antonio Banderas and Rossy de Palma, Mujeres al borde de un ataque de nervios is a must-see film from one of the most unique directors.
