Legendary Spanish director Pedro Almodóvar (The Skin I Live In, Broken Embraces) is back with a kitsch, camp and outrageously funny comedy set mostly on a plane! A technical failure has endangered the lives of the people on board Peninsula Flight 2549. The pilots, hardened, experienced professionals are striving, along with their colleagues in the Control Centre, to find a solution. The flight attendants and the chief steward try to forget their own personal problems and devote themselves body and soul to the task of making the flight as enjoyable as possible for the passengers, while they wait for a solution. Life in the clouds is as complicated as it is at ground level, and for the same reasons, which could be summarised in two: sex and death.
