Under the Skin
FROM THE LINER NOTESIris (Samantha Morton) is a beautiful and sensual 19 year-old woman with emotions and passions raging deep within her. The sudden death of her mother (Rita Tushingham) and its effect on her ontensely jealous relationship with her sister, Rose (Claire Rushbrook) set off a chain reaction. Her repressed passions take over sending Iris down a path of sexual exploration and danger.Bordering on bizarre, Iris resists the natural grieving process by dressing in her mother's old fur coat and blonde wig and embarking on a series of sordid one night stands. Her passion, which is as undeniable as her sensuality, has become her only real means of expression. Spiraling into a dark abyss of obsession and self destruction, Iris' life and salvation become desperately entwined with the sister she despises and Iris' need to confront the demons of her past.
