La peau blanche (White Skin)
Thierry (Paquet) has fallen madly and inexplicably in love with Claire (Farley), a girl he just met, whose dominant characteristic is her unnaturally white skin. His fascination begins to verge on obsession until he starts to feel a sneaking suspicion that she’s actually a vampire.
This brilliant and terrifying horror drama from Daniel Roby won the Best First Feature award at TIFF and the Claude Jutra award at the Genies.
