The Skin I Live In (or ‘The Skin I Inhabit’ depending on translation) on the face of things, tells the story about Roberty Ledgard (Antonio Banderas) who is a skilled and respected cosmetic surgeon. Since his wife was horrifically burnt in a car crash Ledgard has made it his life’s work to develop an artificial skin which is impervious to any external forces, whether this is burns or insect bites.
