Critically-acclaimed Australian director Bruce Beresford takes a frank and funny look at the coming-of- age of two Australian teenagers, Debbie and Sue, as they learn to cope with growing up on the surfing beaches outside Sydney. To be part of the "in crowd" at their high school, the girls get involved in the local surfing scene and are expected to be the compliant, adoring companions of local surfing hotshots. In exchange, the surfing gang will provide them instant popularity and respect. Eventually, the pair learn that they are victims of peer group pressure, and that this seemingly wonderful life has many unpleasant sides. Some of the girls fall prey to drugs, alcohol and unwanted pregnancies. But Debbie and Sue survive, and finally commit the one act of healthy rebellion that frees them from the limited world of gang life. Based on the popular Australian novel by former "Surfies" Kathy Lette and Gabrielle Carey, Puberty Blues transcends traditional teenage films with an insightful look at the adolescent rites of passage from a refreshing female point of view. This edition is packaged in a deluxe capsule clamshell case with photos and other information on the reverse side of the cover sleeve.
