Kiss of the Spider Woman, directed by Bill Condon, will hit theaters on October 10, distributed by Roadside Attractions. This bold new film reimagines the Tony Award®-winning musical and acclaimed 1976 novel by Manuel Puig.

The story follows Valentín (Diego Luna), a political prisoner, who shares a cell with Molina (Tonatiuh), jailed for public indecency. To cope with prison life, Molina escapes into fantasy, recounting glamorous Hollywood films starring his favorite screen diva, Ingrid Luna (Jennifer Lopez).

As Molina tells these stories, the boundaries between reality and imagination begin to fade. The two men form an unexpected bond. The emotional connection they forge changes both their lives forever.
