Overview

Short film by Almodovar, which tells the origin of the veil. Abraham, walking with Isaac, meets Salomé, who dances and demands Isaac’s head. Isaac flees but is hypnotised and returned. Abraham, about to act, hears God reveal it was a test of temptation. Salomé is a divine figure, and Abraham is instructed to have women cover themselves as a sign of respect.
