Synopsis

Spanish director Pedro Almodóvar is known for his character-driven films featuring irreverent humour, strong-willed women and unconventional relationships, shot in bold, primary colours. All these elements come together in this uplifting, Best Foreign Language Film Oscar-winning tale of Manuela, a mother who decides to relocate to Barcelona after her son's sudden death. There she hopes to re-connect with her ex-husband, but also finds herself drawn into an intriguing circle of unusual people, some of whom are dealing with grief of their own.

What our educators say

"It really is a chance for us to open children's minds to the power of film not just as a vehicle for entertainment but also as a way in to understanding their own world and the worlds of people whose lives are very different."
