Labyrinth of Passion is a 1982 Spanish screwball comedy written and directed by Pedro Almodóvar, starring Cecilia Roth and Imanol Arias.
Antonio Banderas has a small role marking his film debut.
" Labyrinth of Passion", Almodóvar's second film, was independently produced with a shoestring budget which allowed for better production values than his previous film" Pepi, Luci, Bom", and to employ a more complex narrative.
The plot follows a nymphomaniac pop star who falls in love with a gay Middle Eastern prince.
Their unlikely destiny is to find one another, overcome their sexual preferences and live happily ever after on a tropical island.
Although badly received by Spanish film critics," Labyrinth of Passion" was a modest success and it quickly reached cult film status.
The film is an outrageous look at love and sex, framed in Madrid of the early 1980s, during the so- called Movida madrileña, a period of sexual adventurousness between the dissolution of Franco's authoritarian regime and the onset of AIDS consciousness.
