Despite its disarmingly strange erotic scenes, The Skin of Others is a deeply romantic love story.
Despite its disarmingly strange erotic scenes, The Skin of Others is a deeply romantic love story.
Marc is a successful author of erotic literature. But in his everyday life, he is afraid of physical closeness. Justine, a nurse by profession, wants aggressive sex and is confronted with her husband's outbursts of rage and control in their marriage. In Marc's and Justine's affair, both are looking for "normal" togetherness.
Cinematically, the themes of loneliness, alienation, search for identity and relationship are realized in realistic images and authentic dialogues.
"A bizarre love film that is deeply romantic for all the obsessions shown." (ARD Brisant)
