Bitter Christmas (Amarga Navidad, 2026, Spanish)

Pedro Almodóvar's <span style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 11pt; white-space: pre-wrap;">Bitter Christmas tells two alternating stories, one starring Elsa, an advertising director, in 2004, during a long weekend in December. The second takes place in 2026 and stars Raúl, a screenwriter and director who is writing a script that we soon discover is the story of Elsa, her boyfriend Bonifacio, and her friends Patricia and Natalia. Mixed with fiction, Elsa is, in a way, Raúl's alter ego, who, like him, resorts to autofiction as a solution to a long period of creative drought. He looks inside himself, and he can't help but also look at the people who make up his most intimate universe: his partner and his assistant. </span><span style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 11pt; white-space: pre-wrap;">The film narrates the close relationship between reality and fiction, between inspiration and life, exploring the limits of autofiction and stories within stories.</span><div><br class="Apple-interchange-newline"><br></div>DramaPT1H51M2026-11-25ESes
