Your chance to catch Antonio Banderas as Robert, a brilliant but deranged plastic surgeon obsessed with creating a superhuman skin: sensitive to the touch but strong and fire resistant. He experiments on imprisoned human guinea pig Vera (Elena Anaya) in his theatre, but a tiger-suited criminal threatens to disrupt Robert's master plan: who is this mysterious Vera, and what happened to his wife and daughter? To reveal too much would be to spoil its terrific twists. Almodovar operates with elegant precision, visiting many of his themes (sexual identity, bodies, power and desire) while fashioning a superb Frankenstein's monster of a film: part mad melodrama, part psychosexual thriller and completely pleasurably perverse.

"A ravishing must-see movie with a must-keep-secret twist." Telegraph
