Plot

The Cannibalistic Councillor is a 2009 Spanish short film directed by Pedro Almodóvar.

Sinekatalog’s take

A very short film from a notable Spanish director, with a title that promises mischief and macabre humour. With little more than that to go on, expect a black-comic miniature suited to fans of his playful side.Sinekatalog’s own editorial review – not a user or critic quote.
