Wiki.
Shook is a Canadian drama film, directed by Amar Wala and released in 2024.
An expansion of his 2018 short film of the same name, which starred Raymond Ablack as Ashish and Sugith Varughese as his father, the film is based in part on Wala's own experiences after his real father was diagnosed with Parkinson's disease.
