Synopsis by Dan Pavlides
This gang-directed documentary tries to find common ground between the rebellious teenagers of Sweden, Japan, Italy, and the United States. Italian homosexuals are more open than in other countries, while the relaxed attitudes towards pre-marital sex among Scandinavians is redundantly mentioned. Teens from the U.S. smoke pot and experiment with LSD, while Japanese and Italian teens fall victim to prostitution. Mike Curb provides the music to this low-budget exploitation feature that promises but fails to deliver.
