Overview
El libro que acompaña a la nueva película de Pedro Almodóvar, una historia sobre la estrecha relación entre realidad y ficción, entre la inspiración y la vida.
Un regalo para cinéfilos.
Amarga Navidad nos muestra dos historias en alternancia. La primera empieza en diciembre de 2004, durante el largo puente de la Constitución, y está protagonizada por Elsa, una directora de publicidad, así como por su novio, Bonifacio, y por sus amigas Patricia y Natalia. La segunda transcurre en 2026 y su protagonista es Raúl, un guionista y director que está inmerso en la escritura de un guion: pronto descubriremos que se trata de la historia de Elsa. Ella es, de algún modo, el alter ego de Raúl, quien recurre a la autoficción como solución a una larga temporada de sequía creativa. Mira dentro de sí, y no puede evitar mirar también a las personas que componen su universo más íntimo, que son su compañero y su ayudante.
Esta edición contiene, además del guion de la película, un anexo con comentarios sobre su proceso creativo y el rodaje, firmado por el propio Almodóvar; asimismo, está profusamente ilustrada a todo color con fotogramas del film, imágenes del rodaje y fragmentos del storyboard, y se cierra con un precioso y personal texto, a modo de epílogo, de Gustavo Martín Garzo. Amarga Navidad es un libro que sirve de perfecto acompañante del largometraje y atraerá a todos los amantes del cine y la cultura.
ENGLISH DESCRIPTION
The companion book to Pedro Almodóvar’s new film, a story about the close relationship between reality and fiction, between inspiration and life.
A gift for film lovers.
Bitter Christmas presents two alternating stories. The first begins in December 2004, during the long Constitution Day weekend, and features Elsa, an advertising director, as well as her boyfriend, Bonifacio, and her friends Patricia and Natalia. The second takes place in 2026 and centers on Raúl, a screenwriter and director who is immersed in writing a screenplay: we soon discover that it is Elsa’s story. She is, in a way, Raúl’s alter ego, and he turns to autofiction as a solution to a long period of creative drought. He looks within himself and cannot help but also look at the people who make up his most intimate universe—his partner and his assistant.
This edition contains, in addition to the film’s screenplay, an appendix with comments on the creative process and the shooting of the film, written by Almodóvar himself; it is also lavishly illustrated in full color with stills from the film, images from the shoot, and excerpts from the storyboard, and concludes with a beautiful and personal text, serving as an epilogue, by Gustavo Martín Garzo. Bitter Christmas is a book that serves as the perfect companion to the feature film and will appeal to all lovers of cinema and culture.
