"This is why the close-ups of the acts of mutilation in In My Skin become so important; by using close-ups a spectator can notice the boundaries of the body and skin that would normally go unnoticed. The boundaries of the skin and body become symbolic as the boundaries within the social and work world that entrap Esther."
