Episode 766: In My Skin (2002)

Guest Co-Hosts: Axel Kohagen, Ben Buckingham

Shocktober continues with Marina de Van’s unnerving and unforgettable In My Skin (Dans ma peau, 2002). Written, directed by, and starring de Van, the film follows Esther, a successful marketing executive whose accidental leg injury opens a darkly intimate portal to obsession and self-discovery. As she becomes fixated on her own wound, Esther’s relationship with her body—and reality itself—begins to unravel in a visceral exploration of autonomy, alienation, and flesh as frontier.

Axel Kohagen and Ben Buckingham join Mike for a deep dive into de Van’s fearless vision, its connection to the New French Extremity, and the uneasy beauty found beneath the skin.
