**Screenwriter**: Pedro Almodóvar **Producer**: Esther Garcia Join us for one of Pedro Almodóvar’s best dark comedies in all its colorful mastery in glorious 35mm film! From Academy Award-winner Pedro Almodóvar comes *Volver*, a darkly comedic and compassionate tribute to women and their resilience in the face of life’s most outrageous tribulations. A luminous Penélope Cruz leads an ensemble of gifted actresses, including Carmen Maura, star of Almodóvar’s *Women on the Verge of a Nervous Breakdown*. Raimunda (Cruz) and her sister Sole lost their parents in a tragic fire years ago…or did they? Superstitious villagers claim that the girls’ departed mother, Irene (Maura), has been seen wandering around their Aunt Paula’s home. When Irene appears to Sole, she explains that she has returned to set right her daughters’ troubled lives and reveal shocking secrets that will impact everyone! Raimunda has “female troubles” of her own, least of which is a corpse in the freezer! Winner of numerous film festival and critics’ awards, *Volver* is a hilarious tale of love, loss, and forgiveness. **Picks from the Video Store** Take home more of maestro Almodóvar’s uproarious dark comedies tonight! *Women on the Verge of a Nervous Breakdown, Tie Me Up!
