Plot


Pro

The movie depicts how a young white suprematic decided to leave the hatred in his life and change his racist behavior that defined his life for so long. The one that makes he change is because of his girlfriend.Julie has changed her mind about her old racist behavior and thought patterns, and she gets Babs thinking about his own. [1] For his redemption he had two years of painful laser treatment to remove all the racist tattoos that covered his body, neck and face.[2]

But what “Skin” optimistically suggests is that if someone so deeply entrenched in hatred can turn his life around, maybe there is indeed hope for others."


Black Racism

It’s this new relationship that makes him think twice about knifing black kids and torching mosques as a member of the racist Vinlanders Social Club and so the film follows his attempts to extricate himself from his “family”.
