Synopsis

Vicky and Cristina are two young Americans headed to Barcelona to spend their summer vacation. Vicky is sensitive, rational and plans to get married; Cristina is passionate and on the hunt for exciting adventures. Actually, she doesn’t really know what she wants, but she is perfectly aware of what she does not want. In Barcelona, they both get caught up in an unconventional relationship with Juan Antonio, a well-known painter who is sentimentally linked to his fiery ex-wife, María Elena.
