"Masterpiece" | Perfect Skin
“Masterpiece”
“Katia, an eastern European ex au pair adrift in London is drawn to and befriends Bob a seemingly friendly tattoo artist. His life, however, is spiralling out of control and in his final attempt to fulfil his dream he kidnaps her, intending her to be his muse for his lasting work of art. Her body will be his canvas.
The film’s website describes it as “A unique and thought provoking modern classic that exudes feelings of trepidation and intrigue from the outset, echoing classic British chillers – 10 Rillington Place and Peeping Tom, Perfect Skin is a twisting two hander that grips as compulsively as Hard Candy. A dark and thrilling tale of unfulfilled passion and ambition that slides into obsession.””
