Shirkers
2018 · 1h 37m · Documentary · United Kingdom, United States of America
There are movers, there are shakers, and there are shirkers.
In 1992, teenager Sandi Tan shot Singapore's first indie road movie with her enigmatic American mentor Georges – who then vanished with all the footage. Twenty years later, the 16mm film is recovered, sending Tan, now a novelist in Los Angeles, on a personal odyssey in search of Georges' vanishing footprints.
