He wrote, loved, acted with the mythical independent theatre group Los Goliardos, made short films, collaborated with various underground magazines, wrote stories and was a member of a parodic punk-rock group, Almodóvar and McNamara. At seventeen, he moved to Madrid with a very specific project in mind: to study cinema and direct films. Pedro Almodóvar was born in the heart of La Mancha in the 50s.
