Penelope Cruz puts on her best Andalucian accent for her Goya Award-winning performance in Trueba’s luxurious tale of Spanish expatriates in WWII. A band of filmmakers are forced by the Civil War to move to Germany to shoot a co-production, but get caught up in the hectic climate of looking conflict, not least when the beautiful lead (Cruz) attracts the attention of certified madman Joseph Goebbels. With Hanna Schygulla as Goebbels’ wife.
