Review by Peter-Patrick76

The main characters of the film talk about the vitality of death. Conversations about the sublime, which are not intended for colloquial speech. Women talk a lot about art, the existence of which is shown by Almodóvar as one of the best ways to prolong life.

There is emotional tension throughout the film. I was waiting for the expressive narration inherent in Almodóvar. The scenes of the film are very dynamic. The measured rhythm of the film, however, did not make it boring.

Despite the tragic ending, I was left with a feeling of hope after finishing the film. Hope about our reflection in loved ones and about the revival of the planet.
