Based in the La Mancha area in which Almodóvar was brought up, Volver has a stellar cast of female actress who play out a film where once again the female condition and identity are key themes. We see the women of the town spring-cleaning the graves of their kinsfolk as the film opens and then are drawn into a world where women rule. Raimunda and Soledad, two sisters each have a drama unfold around them; Paula, Raimunda's daughter kills her father, or step father, when he attempts to rape her and the women's mother, who is supposedly dead hitches a lift to Madrid in her daughter's boot. |
