GLOBAL SHUFFLE - documentary feature
On the edge of the planet, next stop south pole, there is a city that speaks over 200 languages.
They have one dance, The MELBOURNE SHUFFLE.
Now it's gone Global
We follow the development of this distinctive and much loved underground dance style,
from the dark murky dance floors of a recession ravaged Melbourne underground arts
community in the early 1990's, to the global dance style of choice by todays online
generation born during it's creation.
Directed by Melbourne born and based artist Garry Shepherd GLOBAL SHUFFLE 1990:2010 presents the most creative and significant Melbourne Shufflers and shuffle moves over 20 years,
Using rare original archival shuffle footage and interviews shot by Shepherd combined
with new footage from todays international shufflers, the documentary examines the
impact of Melbourne Shuffle culture with it's inclusive tolerant no-hate ethos, in a world typically
at war with itself.
