Living Skin, is a 2010 Egyptian movie, directed by Ahmed Fawzi Saleh. with a runtime of 52 minutes.
Living Skin is an Egyptian documentary that uses the perspective of child workers in Cairo's leather tanneries to expose a harsh and often invisible world. The film documents the inhuman conditions endured by those who live and labor in the tanneries, where dangerous chemicals pervade the air and soil, threatening both human health and the environment. By centering the lens on the children trapped in this cycle, the documentary forces viewers to confront the true cost of cheap leather — a cost measured in ruined childhoods, poisoned bodies, and forgotten communities on the margins of one of the world's great cities.
