By Hook or by Crook

Three weeks in the life of a gender-bending, small-town dishwasher with a nagging messiah-complex. Defeated since the death of his father, Shy heads to the big city to sink into a "life of crime" and is quickly distracted by Valentine, a deliriously expressive, wiseacre adoptee on a misguided search for their birthmother. The two grifters join forces and learn the true meaning of "poise under pressure" in an anti-authoritarian tale of friendship, trust and redemption. (Artistic License)
