The Skin I Live In

(La Piel que Habito)
Spain
2011
117 mins
Director Pedro Almodovar
Starring Elena Anaya, Marisa Paredes, Antonio Banderas

An obsessive plastic surgeon Robert Ledgard (Antonio Banderas) has a project to create a type of synthetic skin that can withstand any kind of damage. When he directs his obsession on the lovely, enigmatic Vera (Elena Anaya), the plot spirals and twists into darker psychological depths.

A daring and entirely unique masterpiece.

Winner of BAFTA Best Film Not in the English Language 2011

“Fantastically twisted… a truly macabre suspense thriller.” The Guardian

“The work of a master.” The Daily Telegraph

Your Reaction:
