Pepi is a modern, intelligent, and amoral young woman who lives near Luci. Luci, married to a police officer, is the quintessential housewife, self-sacrificing and docile — though she hides a secret behind this uninteresting appearance. Then there is Bom, the youngest of the three, violent and perverse, who sings in a pop group called El Bomitoni. The fates of these three women collide when the policeman rapes Pepi in exchange for forgetting about the marijuana she is growing on her terrace… An acerbic comedy full of surprises, this film marks the early days of Almodóvar’s cinema, set against the backdrop of a turbulent Madrid.
