The Compeer model involves a system that matches a volunteer from the community with an individual with mental illness from the same place. The volunteers are provided training information as well as resources throughout the program. An adult male or female volunteer regularly spends time with an adult or youth who is receiving mental health services. The goal is to provide supportive friendships for people in mental-health care, typically as a complement to therapy, in order to help and support them on their journey of recovery from mental illness.

Edwards, Almodóvar: Labyrinth of Passion, p. 30 A fresh-faced Antonio Banderas (who starred in a number of Almodóvar's later films) made here his film debut as a gay terrorist, gifted with a hyper sense of smell that he uses it to track down a Prince with whom he has fallen in love. The film is notable also for Almodóvar's appearance in full drag as a nightclub compeer. The director also plays himself at the beginning of the film in a short scene in which he directs a young transvestite junkie to butcher himself with a drill for a photo strip entitled Photo Porno Sexy Fever.
