The definitive documentary on the history of nudity in feature films from the early silent days to the present, studying the changes in morality that led to the use of nudity in films while emphasizing the political, sociological and artistic changes that shaped that history. Skin will also study the gender inequality in presenting nude images in motion pictures and will follow the revolution that has created nude gender equality in feature films today.
Tracing the evolution of the human form on screen reveals a volatile collision between shifting social morality and artistic intent. This deep dive examines how censorship and gender politics have dictated exactly what audiences are permitted to see.
