SKIN DEEP
Documentary Series, 2009
104 Episodes x 30 minutes
A revealing look into the emotional, costly journey taken by an increasing number of women and men who choose to redesign and alter their bodies in pursuit of “beauty”.
SKIN DEEP goes under the knife, beyond the myths and preconceptions of cosmetic surgery to explore the questions: who has it – what they have done – and why.
From “reconstruction”, to “enhancements”, “restorations” and the new elixir of youth, “Botox”, SKIN DEEP explores the cultural phenomenon of cosmetic surgery as healer of emotional wounds, banisher of childhood fears, creator of new beginnings.
Intensely intimate, SKIN DEEP provides provocative insight into our need to understand, control and accept the depth of our humanity.
