SKINNED ALIVE tells the story of what may come of humans in the near future. A story of the growing threat of fascism and the complete return of feudalism in the modern day. Neo-feudalism, and what is born from it as the classes become increasingly divided along a binary rich oligarchy and poor everyone else. As the grips that regular people have on housing and shelter becomes looser, and the promise of ownership becomes more of a dream, we are controlled more and more by the shelter we live in. Chasing a stable life, we sacrifice so much, but what happens when we grow tired of chasing? When we fall and there is nothing left to catch us? What becomes of the human form outside of a stable environment and into one that is designed more hostile with each day?
