Description

Two courageous explorations of the depths of adolescent enthusiasm. Louella dislikes her name, is enthusiastic about shades and shouts himself hoarse when she gets annoyed. Folks call her "slow," but Lou knows something without a doubt: she really wants to be with her sweetheart -- no real matter what her parents or physicians believe. Sensitively and poignantly informed, Only The Skin chronicles the aftermath of the mentally challenged woman's choice to possess intercourse.
