SKIN is a short fantasy drama based on Celtic folklore of Selkies. Selkies are seals that have the ability to shed their fur and walk ashore as humans. Ilias, lonely and isolated, stumbles upon a group of Selkies dancing and celebrating in their human forms. After accidentally startling the group, they grab their furs and return to the water as seals. Left alone and scared is a beautiful selkie woman who is unable to find her fur, therefore cannot return to the sea. Being taken in by Ilias, a romantic relationship begins to develop. As much as there is love, not everything is as it seems, leading them both to experience their ultimate fate.
