Skinning Rope

0/5 ( ratings)

These stories about San Francisco in the 60's speak of that memorable time when the voices of hope and possibilities competed with the sinister drumbeat of the Vietnam War. The characters struggle, succeed, and sometimes fail, but in the end they courageously follow their choices. We see young men stoically face the inevitability of the draft as well as senior "pioneers" who endure daily lives of quiet resignation. Each story begins with a new opening; each story ends too soon. Take your time. The essence of the stories comes to us slowly. The sensual side of this charismatic city seduces with scents, sounds, flavors, and panoramic vistas. Step on to the iconic cable car that tenaciously follows the arterial network of its roadways. Remember, "it's all about the ride."
