Directed by Giuseppe Andrews
Starring Bill Nowlin, Giuseppe Andrews and Ruth Estes

In this truly independent Coming-of-Age story, Giuseppe Andrews stars as Coney Island, a young man who is dealing with a lot of the issues facing today’s youth: divorce, unemployment, sexual inadequacy and a gigolo father who has just been released from prison!
Ever the optimist, Coney Island spends his days singing songs of hope to senior citizens and riding miniature broncos at his favorite playground. Pushed by his unfulfilled girlfriend to grow up, Coney Island turns to Daddy Bill (Bill Nowlin) for advice in the ways of love and embarks on a grotesque and wildly hilarious journey of self-discovery.

With all of Andrews's trademark dialogue and film aesthetic, Touch Me in the Morning is a fiercely independent masterpiece from "a movie director poised to take over the underground"
