A cinematic, poetic and personal meditation on change, social inequality and loss, the film follows filmmaker Denise Zmekhol as she discovers that her late father’s most famous building, a modernist glass skyscraper in the heart of São Paulo, is occupied by hundreds of homeless families. Delicately interweaving the personal and the political, Glass Skin is a profound and moving reflection on Brazil’s evolution through times of darkness, transformation and rebirth.
