What's left behind the scenes

Manuela Coleman is a character in Pedro Almodóvar's film 'The Flower of My Secret.'
Radost's monologue is based on a real event. When the electronic system of the Teatro Argentino failed, the director cancelled the performance. Actress Lola Membrives decided to inform the audience in the hall and made them an offer: if they stayed, she would tell them the story of her life.
'All About My Mother' is the first film by Pedro Almodóvar largely shot outside of Madrid. The director pays tribute to Spain's second largest city – Barcelona.
Pedro Almodóvar dedicated his film '...to all the actresses who act; all the women who act; all the men who act and transform into women; and to all those who want to become mothers and their mothers'.
In his notes about the film, Pedro Almodóvar recalls Blanche Dubois’ phrase ('A Streetcar Named Desire' by Williams) 'I have always depended on the kindness of strangers' and notes that in the film, strangers are women.
