Shiners 2017 123movies

Watch: Shiners 2017 123movies, Full Movie Online – The lives of a number of shoe shiners are presented, with a focus on a few working in La Paz, Bolivia, New York City, USA, Sarajevo, Bosnia-Herzegovina, Tokyo, Japan and Toronto, Canada. The individuals highlighted have different stories that got them into the work, and besides the job in and of itself, the common aspects between these shiners are the realization that general society views the work as being beneath them with many looking through them as people until they get to know them, and that they are all proud of doing the work with the exception of many of those in La Paz who wear a mask while working in understanding that being known as a shoe shiner could place limits on them in that general societal disdain. While there are some who do the work in purely a means to survive in difficult life situations, most chose this job either as an outcome of a personal current situation, as an alternative to what was a previous unsatisfying “other” work life, many in some sort of professional career, or indeed a very conscious choice in wanting to revive what may be considered a dying art..
Plot: Meet the men and women who make their living cleaning our shoes. From New York to Tokyo and beyond, The Art of the Shine travels the world to give you an insider’s view of this overlooked profession. People around the world have turned to shoe shining to provide for themselves and their families. These are their stories.

An Almost Lost Art
I found this documentary compelling and interesting. There is indeed an art to the craft of the shoeshine, and it is one that we should respect despite our throwaway mentality. When I saw the gleaming and elegant finished work, I longed for the Spanish and Italian and American shoes that my parents treated with such respect. Shoes were meant to last and indeed did last with careful attention and renewal. Shoe repair and shoe shines were expected. My dad would opt for a formal shoeshine, and my mom and we kids had our family shoe shine kit that included vaseline for the girls’ patent leather shoes and bags.
