En mi propia piel

Don't expect something flashy and fancy here. A movie with no heroes, just an amazing movie based on real events with magnificent performances and an exceptional soundtrack. Sit there, enjoy the movie. Don't expect a happy ending with justice, vengeance and payback. Feel the pain. Be emphatetic with the main character and try to help him, even if you can't. Not to many movies have the touch to tell a story this way without the gigantic budget, the overrated performers and the exagerated promo.That's life; a chain of huge errors.

There is no doubt that Alessandro Borghi is one of the most talented Italian actors. I discovered him in Suburra. I loved his acting there. Here in Sulla mia Pelle he plays Stephano Cucchi young man accused of narcotics possession in 2009. Based on real events, the movie is hard to watch but a must. A solid 8/10.

Police officers using shameful techniques to extort confessions, an expeditious and dehumanized justice, a minimalist and indifferent prison medicine, ... Thus, we helplessly witness a slow but inescapable descent into hell. As sad as true.

It's my first review here on IMDb. I saw this movie today and I had really felt the pain lived by the Cucchi's family. The acting is awesome, assuming that Alessandro Borghi is a superb actor (he played Aureliano in Suburra). In Italy, where I live, the death of Stefano Cucchi has been a matter for many years and it's still today. All hail to Netflix, trying to "do justice" to this judicary case.

A must see, to understand better what Italy really is.

Superb directing & brilliant acting. This film is based on true events highlighting police brutality amongst a few bad apples and the consequences of.
