Just released from residential psychiatry, gentle orphan Ricky pursues his pathological obsession: porn actress Marina. Penniless and without a chance to court her, he kidnaps her from the set of crippled director Maximo’s last movie. And that’s just the beginning…
Hot off the major success of Women on the Verge of a Nervous Breakdown, Almodóvar soon switched gears, taking his twist-filled melodramatic style into more dangerous territory for what is arguably the darkest romcom ever made. Not for another two decades would he get this kinky again. Viva Pedro!
