📖 Synopsis
A plastic surgeon holds a woman captive in his mansion, with whom he has been experimenting for years. What seems to be a horror thriller reveals layers of obsession, revenge, and transgression that only Almodóvar could film with this blend of elegance and disturbance. Antonio Banderas in his best work with the Manchegan director and Elena Anaya in a role that required extraordinary interpretive value. Dark, fascinating, and impossible to leave.
✍️ Our review
8.5/10★★★★☆
"The Skin I Live In" is Almodóvar at his darkest and most disturbing. Antonio Banderas is spine-tingling. A body thriller that defies genres and categories.
