In My Skin 4K Ultra HD marks the worldwide UHD and Blu-ray premiere of Marina De Van’s fearless and unforgettable debut, a landmark of New French Extremity body horror. After a disfiguring leg injury, a young woman begins to form an obsessive and deeply unsettling relationship with her own body, where pain becomes intimacy and self-mutilation transforms into compulsion. What unfolds is a harrowing descent into physical and psychological extremity that remains as shocking today as it was on release.
 
Written, directed by, and starring Marina De Van, the film is anchored by a raw and uncompromising central performance, supported by Laurent Lucas and Léa Drucker. In My Skin stands as a deeply personal exploration of identity, control, and bodily autonomy, blending clinical realism with nightmarish intensity. Its influence can be felt across modern extreme cinema, yet few films have matched its intimacy or its refusal to soften the experience.
 
Newly scanned in 4K from the original camera negative for the first time ever, this edition presents the film in its definitive form and includes an expansive seven hours of curated special features examining its cultural impact, feminist readings, and lasting legacy.
