Pain and Glory (Dolor y Gloria, directed by Pedro Almodóvar) is a Spanish film about director Salvador Mallo in his decline – played by Banderas – as he reflects and revisits big moments and decisions in his life, including his childhood in the 1960s and when he emigrated with his family.

Other encounters the film documents include Salvador’s search of prosperity, the first desire, his first adult love in the 1980s, the pain of the breakup of this relationship, writing as a therapy to forget and the premature discovery of cinema.

This is is the sixth film Cruz and the director have made together with previous collaborations including Live Flesh, All About My Mother and Volver – which earned her an Academy Award nomination for Best Actress
