“The things the love of a madman can do...”
DramaHorrorMysteryThriller
A brilliant plastic surgeon creates a synthetic skin that withstands any kind of damage. His guinea pig: a mysterious and volatile woman who holds the key to his obsession.
VIBE
A chillingly elegant and deeply unsettling experience, this film is a slow-burn descent into a meticulously crafted world of perverse obsession and psychological manipulation. It feels clinical yet deeply emotional, exploring themes of identity and control with a transgressive, melancholic beauty. Expect a tense, thought-provoking journey.
