Can Go Through Skin

Esther Rots makes a solid debut with this psychological drama about a woman's struggle to live life after a violent assault. Told through the point of view of the victim Rots tells a disturbing tale of a young woman on the edge fighting for her sanity even after moving to the countryside. The film points out the psychological impact that nobody but the victims can relate to. Rifka Lodeizen gives an intense and gripping performance as Marieke who acts almost alone the entire film and has the burden of the entire film on her shoulders. YRCinema's coverage of the San Francisco International Film Festival.
