'Kiss of the Spider Woman' (English)

Stuck in a suffocating prison cell with the bustling city of 1975 Buenos Aires just beyond the walls that confine them, Valentin, a political prisoner, and Molina, a plant sent to spy on Molina, only have each other for company. Molina passes the hours by telling Valentin stories of classic films, and they form a beautiful relationship in stark contrast to the terrifying world that surrounds them. Molina must choose loyalty to either Valentin or the regime. Written by Manuel Puig. Directed by Guillermo Reyes.
