Pedro Almodóvar writes and directs this Spanish comedy which follows the actions of a group of airline passengers who decide to cast decorum aside when they realise their jet is in trouble. After discovering a fault in the aircraft's landing gear shortly after take-off, a Peninsula Airways jet bound for Mexico City is kept in a holding pattern above Madrid. As the authorities on the ground try to solve the problem, the remaining business class passengers - those in economy having been drugged by the crew - try to calm their nerves by embarking on a frenzied and debauched course of sex and drugs, aided by three flight attendants.
