In cases of past childhood abuse, deep parts of the self are thrown into chaos. Memory or concentration are of course strongly impacted, but so are those quiet, invisible areas dealing with emotional stability, personal identity and even gender. Health, career and relationships wear the scars for decades. Shivers, Slaps and Silence is the true story of two teenagers in the sexy 70s, survivors in their own way, and the hearty struggle they assemble through a wild montage of events. Unique, endearing and sprinkled with the sort of humor that teenagers do best.
