"… a veritable masterclass in acting – it really doesn’t get any better than this."
Mark Demetrius, FilmInk

Ingrid (Julianne Moore) and Martha (Tilda Swinton) were close friends in their youth, when they worked together at the same magazine. Ingrid went on to become an autofiction novelist while Martha became a war reporter, and they were separated by the circumstances of life. After years of being out of touch, they meet again in an extreme but strangely sweet situation.

"Like most Pedro Almodóvar films, there’s a harmony here between the aesthetic, emotional, and cerebral, allowing its pleasures to be that much more enriching. And what pleasures..."

Deep Focus Review

"Like his semiautobiographical masterpiece starring Pain and Glory, in his English-language feature debut Almodóvar returns to the theme of aging with the sensitivity and psychological depth that has defined his finest films."
