This film is about a seventeen-year-old light-skinned black girl who tries to pass for white. "High Yellow" was a term first used in the 1920s to describe an African-American with very light skin, and the term had a definite derogatory meaning when used by one African-American to describe another. One of at least two different styles from the original release.
