Skin I Live In, The
horizontal line

Revenge, love, jealousy, and obsession drive a prominent, unscrupulous, creepy, widowed Spanish plastic surgeon (Antonio Banderas) to develop a synthetic skin when his beloved wife is severely burned in a tragic car accident after running away with the drug-dealing son (Roberto Álamo) of his devoted housekeeper (Marisa Paredes) in this fascinating, mesmerizing, suspenseful, Frankenstein-esque, Pedro Almodóvar psychological thriller, which is based on Thierry Jonquet's novel Tarantula, and then he continues to spiral downward when he kidnaps a clothing store clerk (Jan Cornet) who raped his mentally traumatized, teenage daughter (Blanca Suárez) and begins experimenting on a human being (Elena Anaya).
