With gentle humor, this short fiction film captures the plight of a young man caught between the traditional ways of his immigrant Indian parents and the freer lifestyle of his American peers. Working in his parent's convenience store, Ravi flirts with a seductive classmate all the while his parents are hatching a proper arranged marriage for him. But Ravi's high spirits are not to be cramped by his austere parents. This charming film captures the experience of second generation immigrants in our multicultural society.
"The strength of this presentation is its light-hearted depiction of the difficulty facing an immigrant teenager who wishes to assimilate into his new culture, while his parents would prefer he follow their traditional lifestyle."
