Kiss of the Spider Woman (1985)
Once upon a time... in a tropical island far away, there lived a strange woman…
The story of two radically different men thrown together in a Latin American prison cell. One is Valentin, a journalist being tortured for his political beliefs. The other is Molina, a gay window-dresser who fills their lonely nights by spinning romantic fantasies drawn from memories of old movies.
