Spain's acclaimed director, Pedro Almodovar, who scored a huge international success with WOMEN ON THE VERGE OF A NERVOUS BREAKDOWN, has stated he wants to reach audiences through "their hearts, their minds, and their genitals." In LAW OF DESIRE, he more than fulfills this challenge,
offering an exhilarating romp detailing the erotic adventures of Pablo (Eusebio Poncela), a gay filmmaker; his bisexual lover, Juan (Miguel Molina); his transsexual "sister," Tina (Carmen Maura), the mother of a teenager fathered by her when "she" was a "he"; and Antonio (Antonio Banderas), who
becomes involved with both Pablo and Tina as the story accelerates to its tragic finale.
