NotesSet in Madrid a makeup artist who prepares the dead for funerals has a number of relationships, one of whom was in a coffin when they met. Her maid lets her brother who has learning difficulties tie her up while he robs her employer, Kika. But he also rapes Kika who is asleep in her room. Kika doesn't complain until she sees the rape on television. This is a very interesting, stylish, film but with some dubious attitudes. While examining voyeurism the story rambles all over the place. Worthwhile for fans of Almodovar and Abril.
