A voluptuous woman of unknown origin combs the highway in search of isolated or forsaken men, luring a succession of lost souls into an otherworldly lair. They are seduced, stripped of their humanity, and never heard from again. Based on the novel by Michael Faber, Under the Skin examines human experience from the perspective of an unforgettable heroine who grows too comfortable in her borrowed skin, until she is abducted into humanity with devastating results.

Book Club Bar is a hybrid bookstore and cocktail bar in the East Village and they are opening a second location in Bushwick on Saturday, May 2 at 380 Troutman Street. Nitehawk is collaborating with BCB in honor of their journey across the East River with a showing of Under the Skin, a film adaptation of Michael Faber’s sci-fi novel, radically reimagined by Jonathan Glazer and Scarlett Johansson.
