About Skin of Glass
A poetic and personal cinematic meditation on displacement and loss, SKIN OF GLASS follows filmmaker Denise Zmekhol’s journey after discovering that her late father's most celebrated work as an architect, a modernist glass skyscraper in the heart of São Paulo, Brazil, has become occupied by hundreds of homeless families.
Directed by Denise Zmekhol, Skin of Glass leans on a strong ensemble — Denise Zmekhol, Eduardo Suplicy, Paulo Mendes da Rocha — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.
The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about documentary titles of 2026.
