Meet Shabu, a 14-year-old Dutch-Surinamese aspiring artist from 'The Paperclip,' an innercity apartment complex in one of Rotterdam's most notorious neighborhoods. Shabu has big dreams but even bigger problems. He's just totaled his grandmother's car and desperately needs to raise some cash before the end of the summer in order to pay her back. Utilizing his musical talent and street smarts, Shabu concocts a plan to both make the money and make his family proud in this 'crowd-pleasing' documentary that culminates in a 'rousingly raucous finale' (Screen Daily).
