Synopsis

Set in the Spanish city of Barcelona, VICKY CRISTINA BARCELONA is the romantic adventure of two young Americans, Vicky (Rebecca Hall) and Cristina (Scarlett Johansson) who spend a summer there.

When they meet flamboyant artist, Juan Antonio (Javier Bardem), and his gorgeous but crazy ex-wife, Maria Elena (Penelope Cruz), their lives become an increasingly complex tangle. Soon-to-be-married Vicky is usually the strait laced one of the two, in contrast to Cristina who is much more of a free spirit out for an adventurous time.

However when they all become amorously entangled chaos ensues...
