Squeegee Bandit
Starfish is a Maori man who survives by washing car windows at intersections on the mean streets of South Auckland. A born hustler with charisma to spare, infectious humour, and a vicious temper, this documentary, from the director of 'Behaviours of the Backpacker', follows his struggles through nine months, three cars, two women, thirty residences, three weeks of homelessness, a hundred run-ins with the cops, one court date, a kilo of marijuana, a closet full of skeletons, finding God and the Zen of window washing.
