Two Spanish films featuring stars that later became internationally famous--Penelope Cruz and Salma Hayek--are collected together here: LA NINA DE TUS OJOS (THE GIRL OF YOUR DREAMS) and EL CALLEJON DE LOS MILAGROS (THE ALLEY OF MIRACLES). LA NINA DE TUS OJOS: In 1938, in the midst of the Spanish Civil War, Germany invites a group of Spanish filmmakers to Berlin in order to make two film versions of the hit Andalusian musical production "The Girl of Your Dreams," one in German and one in Spanish. The German Minister of Propaganda under Hitler welcomes them with open arms, if only to get in the good graces of Spanish leading lady Macarena Granada (Penelope Cruz). Their situation becomes even more uncomfortable when the only Andalusian-looking extras they can find for their film are the prisoners in a neighboring concentration camp. When Macarena befriends a prisoner and attempts to help him escape, the filmmakers find that they may have trouble getting out of Germany alive. EL CALLEJON DE LOS MILAGROS: Set in Mexico City's old downtown section, this is a character study of three neighbors, whose stories intertwine: Rutilio, a family man who fears his homosexual feelings; Susanita, a dreaming spinster who falls prey to a thief; and Alma (Hayek), a virgin who succumbs to cocaine and prostitution.
