A camp melodrama/comedy about Sexilia (a nymphomaniac), Sadec (a gay Islamic terrorist), Riza Niro (the son of the emperor of Tiran), and Queti (the daughter of a dry-cleaner). When Riza Niro discovers that Sadec and his colleagues are after him, he disguises himself as a punk rocker, and falls in love with the stunning Sexilia, his first straight relationship. Meanwhile Queti, Sexilia’s “biggest fan”, helps Sexilia come to terms with her new life-style.
Almodóvar ’s second film is an outrageous look at love and sex, framed in Madrid of the early 1980s, during the so called Movida Madrileña, a period of sexual adventurousness between the dissolution of Franco’s authoritarian regime and the onset of AIDS consciousness.
