SENSITIVE SKIN, Series 1

Trailer

"Kim Cattrall is fantastic" - The Guardian

This acclaimed remake is the story of Davina, a fiftysomething year-old woman (Kim Cattrall, Sex and the City) and her longtime husband (Don McKellar, Slings & Arrows) who sell their comfortable upper middle class family home and moves downtown to a hip condo in a conscious effort to breathe life into their 30 year relationship, to change their lives, to keep relevant - to begin again. Unfortunately, that's exactly what happens. Davina soon finds that all their efforts do nothing to address the emptiness she feels inside. It isn't long after the move that she suffers the first in a series of disturbing delusional episodes that indicate to her that she is, without a doubt, in crisis. Eventually she embraces these delusions, using them to rationalize dangerous behavior. Davina's questionable choices lead her to a better understanding of who she is at this point in her life, but at the cost of the one thing that was keeping her sane: her marriage. Also starring Nicolas Wright (White House Down), Joanna Gleason (The Wedding Planner) and Colm Feore (Chicago). (6 EPS, 2015)
