CGiii Comment

Axel Glitter is a teenage prostitute who comes from the usual broken home with a substance-abusing mom and an abusive stepfather. Rather than go to school, Alex hangs out with his friends in the center of town and cruises a gay bar to try and find johns. His personality varies wildly from friendly and playful to spiteful and violent so it's difficult to know whether to hope he finds some joy in his life or hope he gets arrested and sent to juvenile hall.
