Synopsis

It has been years since long-time friends Ingrid, a best-selling novelist, and Martha, a war journalist, have seen each other. Upon learning of Martha’s cancer diagnosis, Ingrid rushes to her side and they rekindle their bond. With each shared memory, their connection grows.

Our take

Winner of a Golden Lion at Venice, the first English-language feature from Spanish master Pedro Almodóvar swells with luxurious colours and a spectral score. Channelling the ebb and flow of memory and grief with exquisite precision, Tilda Swinton and Julianne Moore make for a sublime duo on screen.
