This film marked Almodóvar's entry into the big time. The film starts tragically when Esteban, son of the main protagonist Manuel an Argentinian nurse, is killed on his seventeenth birthday. She allows her son's heart to be transplanted and then goes to Barcelona to find Esteban's father, Lola, who knew nothing of having a child. In Almodóvar style the plot then launches into a complex web of events involving a range of disparate characters and attitudes. This is the director dealing with identity in the modern world where straight, gay, bisexual and transexual people have to work things out together so it could be challenging to the more sheltered student but it certainly has a lot to discuss.
