This documentary is about an Indian-American (from India) trying to find someone to date & marry. It’s basically an exploration of the Indian dating scene, from arranged marriages in India to the parental-fax-net dating service here in the US. I just wanted to grab this guy by the shoulders and tell him “dude, marry the girl you love, no who your parents think is right”. Of course, if he’d done that, there would be no movie. So, I have to wonder… was this guy so crass that he had his true-love wait for a year while he made this movie?
One interesting side-note… much of the filming in this movie was admittedly dreadful (done by the director’s sister), but that didn’t detract from the story much at all. It might have even given it more authenticity. Funny how that works…
