Shabu Review
“It’s the use of sound, though, that elevates the film from a well-staged documentary to something altogether more immersive. Shabu’s incessant drumming – on bins, walls, and other urban architecture – punctuates Michael Varekamp’s Jazz-infused score to create a medley of his emotions. It’s as if, in expanding the boundaries of what a documentary can and should be, Raphaëla feels an affinity with her subject – neither of them, it seems, want to settle for what’s expected of them.”
