Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })Volver is a 2006 film by Spanish director Pedro Almodóvar starring Penélope Cruz and Carmen Maura (the names are significant if you are at all aware of Spanish film for the past 30 years, or their relationship with Almodovar). Cruz plays Raimunda, a thirty something living in Madrid. She and her sister Sole (short for Soledad, "loneliness") return to the village of their birth in La Mancha for their aunt's funeral. There are rumors that the ghost of the two sisters' mother, Irene (Maura), who died in a house fire alongside their father, haunts the village; a local woman, Agustina, claims she saw her with the aunt. Sole encounters Irene's ghost, who hides away in the trunk of her car. The ghost stays with her daughter, posing as an illegal immigrant working for Sole's salon.For Raimunda, however, a crisis occurs when her husband, Paco, attempts to rape their daughter, Paula, and she kills him in self defense. This sets in motion a chain of events that involves prostitutes disposing of the body, Raimunda acquiring a restaurant, and Irene trying to find a way to resolve all the family issues she couldn't work through before her death.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_2'); })The title, for those who do not speak Spanish, means "to return [to a place]." | |

All Men Are Perverts: When they are not outright rapist monsters, they're at least ogling at (married) Raimunda. | |

Bad Liar: Sole is such a terrible liar it's amazing she manages to bluff her way through the movie as long as she does. | |

Bittersweet Ending: Raimunda has taken a new business - a restaurant - after years of low-paid jobs and has reconciled with her mother, but the police may one day question about her husband's disappereance and she has promised her daughter to tell her about their father one day, even if it'san Awful Truth. Also Agustina is doomed to die of cancer. | |

At one point, there's a top-down shot that gives us a good view of Cruz' cleavage. When she's cleaning the knife used to murder Paco. | |
