Spanish – English subtitles 

Three camp and slightly bitter air stewards take their passengers, and the audience, on a wild flight to Mexico City in this colourful Spanish comedy set on an airplane. Drugs, alcohol and sexual licence abound amidst the turbulence and mishaps of the journey as both passengers and crew discover a lot more about themselves, and each other, than they previously knew.  

Farcical and larger-than-life, I’m So Excited! overflows with director Pedro Almodóvar’s signature melodrama. 

‘ In Pedro Almodóvar's ecstatic return to his signature bawdy comedy, the commonplace –  a flight from Madrid to Mexico – is made outrageous, and a literally heightened atmosphere returns a group of variously suspended characters to the world’ – SBS 
 
Part of Mothers & Melodrama: a spotlight on the rich collaboration between acclaimed Spanish director Pedro Almodóvar and actor Penélope CruzA discounted four-film pass is available for screenings of All About My Mother (1999), Volver (2006), Parallel Mothers (2021) and I’m So Excited! (2012). Learn more
