Summary
Set against the backdrop of mad, mad Madrid, this film swirls around an outrageous cast of characters. Our hero is absorbed in a cat-and-mouse game of obsessive love which before long entangles his transexual brother/sister, a father/son detective team and a mother who makes the Spider Woman look tame. Almodóvar brilliantly examines the idea and the attractions of absolute desire in this hilarious film.
