The film is circular in plot as well as in a number of other ways (for example, the names of its main characters, Otto and Ana, are both palindromes). The film is centered around an incestuous love relationship between step-siblings. The two meet one day after school, when Ana's father dies, and her mother marries his father. Ana believes that Otto is the reincarnation of her father, but eventually the two of them fall in love. For a number of reasons, they are eventually separated, and Otto becomes a pilot flying between Spain and the Arctic Circle. Ana moves to the same area to leave behind her past and past lovers, and tries to get in touch with him again.

Lorsque la guerre civile éclate en 1936, les garçons d'un pensionnat catholique en territoire républicain sont renvoyés chez eux. Trouvant que l'appartement à Gérone de sa mère, veuve, est réquisitionné et qu'elle est bien loin à La Corogne, il décide de la rejoindre en vélo. Au front d'Aragon, il est arrêté par une unité anarchiste sous le commandant charismatique Davalos et est enrôlé pour aider le cuisinier Honorio, qui poursuit une liaison avec une femme paysanne Pilar. Aussi arrêtés sont un riche Anglais et sa femme américaine, la Condesa, pour qui Andrés agit comme interprète et est récompensé. Ensuite il est envoyé à Barcelone où il entame une liaison avec Julia, la fille vierge de la maison, mais est expulsé juste avant la consommation. Pour vivre, il commence à traiter sur le marché noir et une nuit essaie une prostituée, mais elle est tellement ennuyée qu'en dégoût il la laisse. La guerre terminée, sa mère revient et est mise en place dans un appartement par son amant phalangiste Victor.

Marisa Paredes is Leocadia ("Leo") Macias, a woman writing popular romance novels under the pen name Amanda Gris. Unlike her romantic ("pink") novels, her own love life is troubled. Leo has a difficult relationship with her husband Paco (Imanol Arias), a military officer stationed in Brussels and later in Bosnia, who is distant both physically and emotionally. The film starts with Leo writing about the feeling of having lost her lover, a feeling that she compares to the pain of a tight pair of boots that she can't take off. Almodovar took for this first part of the film strong plot elements from Dorothy Parker's short story The Lovely Leave

Jota (Novo), a failed musician whose girlfriend has recently left him, is about to commit suicide by jumping off a bridge when a girl on a motorcycle, Sofía (Suárez), crashes off it. Rushing to help her, he discovers she has lost her memory, even forgetting her name. After telling the paramedics and staff at the hospital that she is his girlfriend, he later tells her the same. He invents an entire identity for her, giving her the name Lisa, and a history of their relationship according to his own fantasies. With the hospital psychiatrist starting to become suspicious, he spirits her out of the hospital and away on a trip to the 'Ardilla Roja' campsite, which he claims they have been planning for some while. As their relationship becomes intimate, their behaviour sparks the suspicions of a family of fellow campers (Karra Elejalde and María Barranco) and it becomes clear that Lisa/Sofía's memory is not entirely missing and she is hiding her own past secrets—notably, the existence of a psychotic ex-boyfriend, Félix (Carmelo Gómez), who is rampaging across the country in search of her.
