Paris Shanghai

Paris Shanghai

A hilarious comedy. Prepared for a long 20,000 kilometre bike trip between Europe and Asia, Manu crosses paths with Victor, a teenager at the wheel of a stolen car. Manu enjoys travelling, open spaces and making new friends. Victor does not. His generosity will delay him more than he expected.
