Pedro Almovodar‘s unique Spanish vision has actually been touring the U.S. through the Viva Pedro restrospective for some time now, but finally audiences on both the East Coast and West Coast will get a taste of Pedro’s latest work of art, Volver. The film which has garnered both critical and popular acclaim throughout the world, including an Oscar nod, reunites Almodovar with Penelope Cruz in an all star female led cast.

According to the Sony Classic official website for the film:

Three generations of women survive the east wind, fire, insanity, superstition and even death by means of goodness, lies and boundless vitality.

They are Raimunda (Pénelope Cruz), who is married to an unemployed labourer and has a teenage daughter (Yohana Cobo); Sole (Lola Dueñas), her sister, who makes a living as a hairdresser; and the mother of both (Carmen Maura), who died in a fire along with her husband. This character appears first to her sister (Chus Lampreave) and then to Sole, although the people with whom she has some unresolved matters are Raimunda and her neighbour in the village, Agustina (Blanca Portillo).

The film makes its NYC and Los Angeles debut this Friday, November 3rd, gracias a Sony Pictures Classic VivirLatino is gonna hook you up with peek before then so stay tuned for a review of what promises to be an amazing film. In the meantime check out the official website.
