Shamira Raphaëla’s hilarious, endearing and indefatigably upbeat documentary is powered by the charm of its subject: the good-natured, street-smart, sensitive and resourceful Shabu. Exploring the architecturally striking, working-class Rotterdam neighbourhood of De Peperklip and its vibrant community, it’s a joyful, evocative and optimistic watch.
