Hachuel set up Tesuaro Production and asked Almodóvar to keep Pascual in mind.

Pascual stars as Yolanda, a cabaret singer who seeks refuge in a convent of eccentric nuns, each of whom explores a different sin. This film has an almost all-female cast including Carmen Maura,
Julieta Serrano
,
Marisa Paredes
and
Chus Lampreave
, actresses who Almodóvar would cast again in later films. This is Almodóvar's first film in which he used popular music to express emotion: in a pivotal scene, the mother superior and her protégé sing along with
Lucho Gatica
's
bolero
"
Encadenados
".
Dark Habits
premiered at the
Venice Film Festival
and was surrounded in controversy due its subject matter.

Despite religious critics being offended by the film, it went on to become a modest critical and commercial success, cementing Almodóvar's reputation as the
enfant terrible
of the
Spanish cinema
.
