VENICE 2026: The French director talks about her queer and feminist musical comedy set in the 15th century, which questions identity, desire and social roles
French director Léa Domenach talks to us about her second feature, A Man's Skin, adapted from the graphic novel of the same name by Hubert and Zanzim, and selected as the closing film of the 23rd Giornate degli Autori at Venice. A queer and feminist musical comedy set in the 15th century, the film uses irony to question identity, desire and social roles.
