This wild and wonderful screwball comedy sees Carmen Maura in glorious form as a warm, spirited dubbing actress called Pepa, who’s keen to track down her elusive ex-lover, the suave, smooth-talking Iván. Pepa’s desperation sees her embark on a race against time in a magical Madrid where she encounters unexpected guests, unforeseen adventures and wacky revelations.
