Skins Movie Review 2002

The Pine Ridge Indian Reseration in South Dakota is rife with unemployment, alcoholism, drug abuse, and violence, which native cop Rudy (Schweig) contends with on a daily basis. His older brother Mogie (Greene) is an embittered Vietnam vet and alcoholic who can't be a father to his own teenage son Herbie (Watts). While Rudy seems to have a better handle on life, in fact his frustrations lead to an act of destruction that has unexpected consequences. Based on the 1995 novel by Adrian C. Louis.
