About This Movie

Skins (2017) is this intriguing blend of comedy, drama, and fantasy that takes you to a wonderfully bizarre universe. The characters, each marked by their own deformities, navigate this peculiar reality, striving to find acceptance—not just from others, but within themselves. It’s a quirky mix, really, with a tone that oscillates between light-hearted absurdity and deeper reflections on identity. The practical effects used to depict these characters' unique appearances are certainly striking and add a layer of authenticity to the film. The pacing might feel off to some, but it captures the essence of the characters' journeys. Performances are heartfelt and raw, which makes the whole experience resonate. It’s distinctive for its candid exploration of self-acceptance amidst a backdrop of surrealism.
