Two psychologically battered teenagers meet on a rooftop and bare their psychic scars to each other. The boy feels a mixture of arousal and anguish when he sees the unclothed girl following a gang rape. He relates how his parents forced him into sex, a trauma he curtailed by using a knife. Eventually the boy takes a surprising action. GO, GO SECOND TIME VIRGIN is a rather dismal tale of primitive morality in the face of degradation, humiliation and abuse.
