  This stunning rights of passage novel unfolds against a backdrop of teenage sex, casual dope smoking and snatches of the Clash. A pair of highschool lovers develop an interest in film-making. But when the girl leaves for school in England, the boy withdraws into himself. It is only when a sneak film he makes of his neighbours having sex (accompanied by the family dog) becomes an underground hit, that he begins to emerge from his shell. But he is soon under pressure to follow up his first film with an even bigger hit.
