"KISS OF THE SPIDER WOMAN" revamps a harrowing tale of persecution into a dazzling spectacle that juxtaposes gritty reality with liberating fantasy.
Cell mates in a Latin American prison, Valentin and Molina immediately clash.
Valentin is a tough revolutionary enduring torture and Molina is an unabashed homosexual serving eight years for deviant behavior.
Over time, the men begin to connect as Molina shares his fantasies about an actress, Aurora, who famously portrayed a "SPIDER WOMAN" who can kill with a kiss.
