Kika
A memorable, surreal and bizarre comedy in the best Almodóvar style!
Directed by Pedro Almodóvar
Produced by El Deseo, CiBy 2000
A darkly surreal, genre-defying Spanish comedy that blends morbid subject matter with absurdist humor and romantic chaos.
When American author Nicholas brings in a cosmetologist named Kika to prepare the corpse of his recently deceased son, she inadvertently revives the young man, then falls in love with him. Forces conspire against the couple, though, as Nicholas wants Kika for himself.
