About Shelter
Three inner-city teens find themselves stranded in a secluded beach house. In this strange and magical setting, Ray, his brother Spider and the pregnant Maria, set up housekeeping for the last few weeks of summer. But when jealousies erupt, forcing them to choose their alliances, their makeshift family is put to the test.
Directed by Benno Schoberth, Shelter leans on a strong ensemble — Ray Santiago, Herman Chavez, Rohan Quine — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.
The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about drama titles of 2003.
