Description
A postmodern society, one in which gratuitous sexuality is as common as saying "hello," but is shamed and made a subject of ridicule... This is the confused world that the spunky teenager named Moxy Elliot had to grow up in. Mocked by adults for her low-brow sexy appearance, and treasured by perverted teens with low standards for the same reason, she has been trained to sell herself as a toy. The result is a confused life, which had been compounded by years of broken socialization. The only glimmer of hope for her is a girl in her art class, a girl to whom Moxy is drawn like a moth... For she seems to lack the parts that Moxy feels have been stripped from her, by her environment itself. Engaging and provocative, this thriller and coming-of-age drama is a wild ride with a deep and complicated narrative that calls into question our views of innocence, moral absolutes, and how we treat ourselves in our conflicted social structure; and what this means for us as a species.
