Bad Education

Debuting as the opening film at the Cannes Film Festival, Bad Education exposes the marks left by religious schools under the Franco regime, in an era when the Church dictated the rules. Through the story of two childhood friends in the 1960s, Pedro Almodóvar builds a web of suspense that intertwines desire, revenge and memory. Bad Education unveils dark secrets, exploring child abuse and the emotional scars that mould the fate of the characters. With outstanding performances from Gael García Bernal and Fele Martínez.
