Under my skin

2025

Overview

An unsettling psychological descent into guilt, denial, and fractured identity. A father attends his daughter's funeral—a girl who was brutally assaulted and murdered. But when a young stranger, eerily resembling the father, appears and begins an unwanted conversation, the fragile facade of reality starts to crack. What begins as a confrontation spirals into something far more harrowing: a reckoning with a buried self. Inspired by Amélie Nothomb’s The Enemy’s Cosmetique, this film explores the monstrous duality of man—and the haunting price of facing one’s own darkness.
