Historia
Dr. Robert Ledgard, a brilliant plastic surgeon, becomes obsessed with creating a revolutionary skin graft after his wife dies in a fiery car crash. He experiments on his unwilling patient and lover, Vicente, whom he keeps prisoner in his house for years. As the scientific community grows skeptical of Ledgard's claims, and Vicente escapes to confront his past, dark secrets are revealed that threaten both men.
Resumen
