Acclaimed author Ingrid (Julianne Moore) learns her old friend Martha (Tilda Swinton) - a successful war correspondent - has cancer. Ingrid visits Martha in hospital and the pair reestablish their dormant friendship. As they reflect on the past and learn more about each other, a dying Martha asks her friend for one final favour - to be in the room next to her when she takes her own life. It’s a request that tests their friendship and Martha’s emotional resolve.

Almodóvar has lost none of his trademark directorial flair in his first English language feature. With a tremendous pair of lead performances from Moore and Swinton, The Room Next Door is a compassionate, frank and darkly humorous study of end-of-life.

Winner - Golden Lion, Best Film, Venice International Film Festival 2024

"The movie is all about death, yet in the unblinking honesty with which it confronts that subject, it’s powerfully on the side of life" - Owen Gleiberman, Variety

★★★★ "It’s a lovely, mordant, tender affair; a lush September song in duet, performed with aplomb by Swinton and Moore" - Xan Brooks, The Guardian
