Skin Hunger explores the intersection of grief, faith, and sexuality. After the death of her husband, grief-stricken Eva, a perimenopausal woman of faith, embarks on a journey of self-discovery, spiritual awakening, and sexual empowerment. Amidst a deluge of tragic Tinder dates, self-doubt, and Catholic guilt, she finds the courage to forge a new path for her life in the chaotic aftermath. Eva discovers that there is always life after death.
Returning to Q after a sell-out season earlier this year, SKIN HUNGER will make you laugh out loud and also move you to tears.
