Esther, around 30 years old, has both feet on the ground. But after an accident she develops unusual tendencies... Marina de Van took the lead role herself in her equally shocking and breathtaking feature film directorial debut, "because the film is about my obsession with my body." Awarded Best International Film at the Fantasia Film Festival in 2003, IN MY SKIN screened in MoMA's "Messaging the Monstrous" series in 2022. According to Filmdienst, "a sensitive horror film developed in monochrome colours and stylised images about a person who has become a stranger to themselves and is desperately searching for their identity within an uncaring consumer society."
