An award-winner in its homeland and a sleeper hit abroad, Sex and Lucía is a sensitive, sensuous, and refreshingly earnest drama about adult relationships—and the gap between sex and intimacy. And Paz Vega, who’d go on to work in Hollywood and with Almodóvar, becomes a star!

Delving into Julio Medem’s exploration of fate and identity, Room in Rome dissects a transformative one-night encounter between two strangers. The complexities of female desire come to the fore in this gorgeous erotic fantasy—a high-voltage, life-changing emotional and sexual adventure.
