The story takes place in beautiful Barcelona, where American girls Vicky (Rebecca Hall) and Cristina (Scarlett Johansson) meet the not-so-esteemed artist Juan (Javier Bardem) while on vacation. The two sisters, who have very different personalities, react differently to Juan’s invitation to spend a weekend in Oviedo; the free-spirited Cristina quickly agrees, while the soon-to-be-married Vicky feels a deep sense of unease. Unexpected events unfold in Oviedo, where Cristina, who should have spent a romantic night with Juan, is bedridden due to illness, while the rational and grounded Vicky ends up having a night of passion with him. After the three return to Barcelona, Vicky's fiancé Doug comes to stay with her, and her life seems to return to normal. However, when Cristina begins a passionate and cohabiting relationship with Juan, his ex-wife Maria (Penélope Cruz) suddenly reappears, creating a peculiar dynamic among the three. Thus, in the romantically charged summer of this European city, a witty yet profound love story begins to unfold. At the 81st Academy Awards in 2009, Penélope Cruz won the Oscar for Best Supporting Actress for her role in this film.
