LaBruce's debut feature film provides a template for many of the themes in LaBruce's later movies. Explicit sex scenes between LaBruce's character and von Brucker's are interwoven with a radical political message.

No Skin Off My Ass played at film festivals around the world and quickly became a cult film. Famously, Kurt Cobain declared it his favourite film.[1][2] The film's soundtrack includes songs by several punk bands such as Frightwig and Beefeater.[2]

Plot

A punk hairdresser (Bruce LaBruce), known only as “The Hairdresser”, becomes obsessed with a mute neo-Nazi skinhead (Klaus von Brücker). Jonesy (G. B. Jones), a film director and the skinhead's sister, attempts to bring her brother and the hairdresser together.[3] The cast also includes Fifth Column band members Caroline Azar and Beverly Breckenridge.
