Under the Skin

Music, TV & Film

Join us for a discussion of Jonathan Glazer’s 2013 feminist masterpiece – Under the Skin. We talk the significant under representation of women in scoring and composing in general. This was composer Mica Levi’s first score (at the ripe age of 22) and she has gone onto a successful, and lauded, career. This episode is full of SPOILERS so if you haven’t seen the film please watch before listening.
