Winner of the Venice Film Festival, 'In the Room Next Door' brings together two great personalities and stars of cinema on screen: Julianne Moore and Tilda Swinton. Pedro Almodóvar's melodrama is an emotional tale of farewells, fulfillment, motherhood, and chosen family, and above all – about living life on one's own terms. The Spanish director's English-language debut opens a completely new chapter in his work while retaining the characteristic humor, melancholy, and seductive splendor of costumes and interiors. An explosion of juicy colors celebrates life in both joyful and bitter aspects and is a tribute to friendship, whose glow can ease any pain.
The action of 'In the Room Next Door' is set on the East Coast of the USA. It is in New York that friends from years ago meet again: successful writer Ingrid (Moore) and Martha (Swinton), a war reporter who is fighting the most important battle of her life. They were separated by professional and personal choices, but fate, which is not chosen, will reunite them. In dramatic circumstances, Ingrid and Martha will see a chance to experience something together once more.
One of the highest-rated films by Pedro Almodóvar is an adaptation of 'The Friend,' a novel by Sigrid Nunez. 'In the Room Next Door' is therapeutic, hopeful cinema that is unashamed to evoke emotions and believe in the healing power of presence and relationships resilient to the passage of time.
