Squinters celebrates the comically mundane peak-hour ritual for the workers of Kosciusko, a consumer goods dispatch center under threat of takeover, as they commute into the rising sun each morning and again as they return at days end.

Squinters follows commuters in peak-hour transit as they drive to work. The title Squinters refers to the fact that the commuters are facing the sun as they head east from Sydney's western suburbs in the mornings, then facing into the sun again in the afternoon on the way back to the western suburbs.
