Pedro Almodóvar has two more short films in pipeline

Pedro Almodóvar’s short drama film “The Human Voice” debuted at the Venice Film Festival 2020.

A 30-minute adaptation of the original stage play by Jean Cocteau, the film tells the story of a desperate woman who waits for the phone call of the lover who has just abandoned her.

The movie’s principal photography was scheduled to begin in April, but was delayed due to the COVID-19 pandemic. Later, it concluded on 27 July 2020.

At the press conference for the short drama film starring Tilda Swinton, Almodóvar teased his upcoming projects.

The filmmaker said he has in the pipeline two more short films and “a different kind of western, which will be very colourful… very theatrical”, writes The Playlist.
