Real-life young couple Wim and Floor spend an afternoon in the sunwashed rooms of a crumbling home in Belgium. In a unique twist, this artistic erotic documentary is edited in nearly real-time. In the slowness, we get the build, the sweetness, and the sexiness. Forget about fingersnapping fast editing. Slow is where it’s at.
Skin. Like. Sun. is a 2009 documentary-romance directed by Jennifer Lyon Bell and Murielle Scherre, presenting an intimate, artful portrait of a real young couple sharing an afternoon in a sunlit, weathered house in Belgium. Its distinguishing approach is editing in near real-time, letting tenderness and desire build slowly rather than through rapid cuts. The result is a quiet, sensual, observational piece more interested in mood, closeness, and unhurried intimacy than narrative. With a MovieMagicScore of 6.1/10, it will appeal to viewers curious about experimental, art-house erotic cinema and films that prize atmosphere and authenticity over conventional storytelling.
