## Synopsis (in-house rewrite)

Almodóvar does his best Douglas Sirk. A famous singer returns to Madrid and stirs things up with her news anchor daughter and the daughter's rather feckless husband. It’s all glossy melodrama until someone gets shot. Everyone looks fabulous, even when they're in jail.

**Mood tags**: bittersweet, outsider, playful, sexy
