Based on the novel "What Are You Going Through" by Sigrid Nunez, Pedro Almodóvar returns to cinemas with his English-language full-length debut. The film premiered on at the 81st Venice International Film Festival, where it was awarded with the Golden Lion, the highest prize, a first for a Spanish film.
Ingrid (Julianne Moore) and Martha (Tilda Swinton) were close friends in their youth, when they worked together at the same magazine. Ingrid went on to become an autofiction novelist while Martha became a war reporter, and they were separated by the circumstances of life. After years of being out of touch, they meet again in an extreme but strangely sweet situation.
Reviews
"The Room Next Door, as driven by the scalding humanity of Swinton’s performance, lifts you up and delivers a catharsis." – Variety
"It’s a lovely, mordant, tender affair; a lush September song in duet, performed with aplomb by Swinton and Moore." – The Guardian
