Live Flesh

Madrid. New Year's Eve. A pistol shot. Two young men meet Elena in a moment of desperate violence, one destined for prison, the other for her bed. Years later, the first man emerges, hardened and hungry, into a world rearranged by passion and guilt. Almodóvar's erotic thriller coils like a viper.
