La Piel Que Habito Spanish edition
Pedro Almodovar
Desde que su mujer sufriera quemaduras en todo el cuerpo en un accidente de coche, el cirujano plastico Robert Ledgard se interesa por la creacion de una nueva piel con la que hubiera podido salvarla. Doce anos despues consigue cultivarla en su propio laboratorio, una piel sensible a las caricias, pero una autentica coraza contra todas las agresiones. Para lograrlo ha utilizado las posibilidades que proporciona la terapia celular. Ademas de anos de estudio y experimentacion, Robert necesitaba una cobaya humana, un complice y ningun escrupulo. Los escrupulos nunca fueron un problema, no formaban parte de su caracter. Marilia, la mujer que se ocupo de el desde el dia que nacio, es su complice. Y respecto a la cobaya humana... Al cabo del ano desaparecen de sus casas decenas de jovenes de ambos sexos, en muchos casos por voluntad propia. Uno de estos jovenes acaba compartiendo con Robert y Marilia la esplendida mansion, El Cigarral. Y lo hace contra su voluntad. / Ever since his wife suffered burns all over her body as a result of a car accident, the plastic surgeon Robert Ledgard has been interested in creating a new kind of skin that could have saved her.

Every year that passes dozens of young people of both sexes have disappeared from their homes, many of them by choice. One of these young people ends up sharing the magnificent mansion of El Cigarral with Robert and Marilia, but its not by choice
