Iris is nineteen, beautiful, impetuous, has a steady boyfriend, a cloying sister and a sick mother. When a family death shatters her precarious world, Iris - brilliantly played by Oscar nominee Samantha Morton (Minority Report) - embarks on a chilling journey of self-discovery, and self-annihilation. Moving into a flophouse and donning a fur coat and lurid blonde wig, the lascivious teen prowls the streets, drinking at random bars, looking for anonymous sex, until her world falls apart. One of the most compelling psychological dramas of the 1990s, Under the Skin, like Girl Interrupted (starring Winona Ryder, Angelina Jolie), negotiates the subtle line between liberation and selfdestruction as a young female fatale risks all to exorcise her demons.
