Mr. Sohal is a big fan of Pedro Almodóvar, and was lucky enough to meet him at a book signing in London, where he was promoting his book The Pedro Almodóvar Archives. When Mr. Almodóvar saw the posters he said 'wow you have made my day'. 

It is rare for anyone to have an original poster signed, as the majority of signatures are on pieces of paper, photographs, and video/DVD sleeves.

This Spanish comedy was written and directed by Pedro Almodóvar, and stars Julieta Serrano, Marisa Paredes and Chus Lampreave. The story is about a nightclub singer, who when her boyfriend dies of an overdose is scared of the police, and takes refuge in a convent that offers shelter and redemption to fallen women. The convent is full of eccentric nuns - from a heroin-using head of the abbey to a nun who keeps a tiger in the courtyard! The convent is in bad disrepair, and so try and convince its wealthy patron not to abandon them, and to celebrate the head of the abbey's birthday, they plan a spectacular evening.
