Paolo Natale's 'Our Raised Skin' Investigates Male Vulnerability in Film

Paolo Natale is developing a new project titled “Our Raised Skin” (“Nuestra Piel Levantada”), which delves into themes surrounding the male body and the complexities of physical touch. The film is currently in the advanced stages of production as part of the incubator program at the Madrid Film School (ECAM).

This project is one of five selected for La Incubadora, which aims to support innovative filmmaking. Natale's work combines elements of documentary and video essay formats, offering a fresh perspective on subjects often overlooked in mainstream narratives. The film's exploration of male vulnerability and the societal fears tied to physicality is particularly pertinent in today’s cultural climate, where discussions about masculinity and emotional expression are gaining traction.
