Julieta is the stunning, warm and seductive new adult drama from pain’s most celebrated filmmaker, Oscar winner Pedro Almodóvar, director of All About My Mother, Volver, Broken Embraces, The Skin I Live In and Talk To Her.
It tells the story of one woman’s personal drama starting when she is a young woman and following her through to her mature years.
Julieta lives in Madrid with her daughter Antía. They both suffer in silence over the loss of Xoan, Antía’s father and Julieta’s husband. But at times grief doesn’t bring people closer, it drives them apart.
When Antía turns eighteen she abandons her mother, without a word of explanation. Julieta looks for her in every possible way, but all she discovers is how little she knows of her daughter.
Julieta talks about the mother’s struggle to survive uncertainty. It also talks about fate, about guilt complexes and about that unfathomable mystery that leads us abandon the people we love, erasing them from our lives as if they had never meant anything, as if they had never existed.
Julieta is played by both Emma Suáres and Adriana Ugarte, who is captivating on the big screen.
Thanks to Transmission Films, The Westerner has five double passes to Julieta to give away.
