One of the most influential and prolific active filmmakers of the last 45 years, the Spanish cult director Pedro Almodóvar has captivated international audiences with his moving explorations of desire, passion, family, and identity. A simple review of his extensive list of productions reveals thrilling stories filled with psychological melodrama, dark humor, family quarrels, and violent lust.

This edition of Los Archivos de Pedro Almodóvar offers unique access to behind-the-scenes images and personal memories through which the director reveals his journey, from the beginnings to The Room Next Door (2024) and Bitter Christmas (2026). Based on the XL volume from TASCHEN, created in collaboration with Almodóvar, the book is an expansion of the original and provides a fascinating insight into the keys of the creative process behind masterpieces such as Mujeres al borde de un ataque de nervios, the Oscar-winning Todo sobre mi madre, and Hable con ella.

Each film is presented with its original poster, a cast and crew list, as well as an essay by a prominent Spanish author. Almodóvar himself complements the vivid photographic material by accompanying each image with his reflections and comments.

This volume delves into a brilliant era of cinema, full of creativity. An essential guide to discovering Almodóvar’s imposing cinematic canon created by himself.
