Shirkers

In 1992, teenager Sandi Tan and her friends Sophie and Jasmine shot Singapore's first indie-a road movie called "Shirkers"-with their enigmatic American mentor, Georges Cardona. Sandi wrote the script and played the lead, a killer named S. After shooting wrapped, Georges vanished with all the footage! 20 years later, the 16mm cans are recovered in New Orleans, sending Sandi-now a novelist in Los Angeles-on a new personal odyssey across two continents and many media: 16mm, digital, Hi8, Super8, slides, animation and handwritten letters. A kaleidoscopic punk rock ghost story!Awards: 8 wins & 32 nominationsSoundtrack: Tick Tick (Written and performed by Weish)Sandi TanSandi Tan, Jasmine Kin Kia Ng, Philip Cheah2018-10-26 (United States, United Kingdom)tt7472352
