George Manias has operated a shoe shine shop for 78 years, ever since surviving the Nazi occupation of Crete from 10-14 years old. Today, at 93, the loss of his sister Angela haunts him as he struggles to decide whether to retire, and whether he can bear to visit Crete again without Angela by his side. A celebration of quiet consistency, humility and effort, "George" is a story about appreciating the people we have before they're gone.
