Bitter Holidays

An aging acclaimed director named Raúl writes a story about the enchanting Else, who arrives on sunny Lanzarote in 2004 to escape a life crisis and find a fresh start. But the events and characters in his manuscript suspiciously resemble the fates of his loved ones - they begin to recognize themselves and ask uncomfortable questions. Where does inspiration end and privacy begin?

Pedro Almodóvar's latest film was presented in the main competition at the Cannes Film Festival.
