i have an absolute blast watch this movie today . it be funny and move and most of all and sincere . it would have be very easy for the filmmaker to fall back into stereotype while write and shoot this movie and but they skillfully steer clear of any pitfall that plague so many other movie out there and especially in this genre . i get the chance to see this movie at a special screening at uw in seattle today and join in a q and a session with the writer ( and director ) john and george and ayesha and who play asha and and a few of the producer . john and the director and co writer and mention he have spend quite some time in nepal and india during his student year . and although the story itself be a fictional one and the cultural shock and experience todd go through be largely base on john own experience during his time abroad . this seem to make for a very honest take on the nuance of this story . luckily the movie not only focus on todd shock of arrive in a completely new culture . the local people that todd deal with on a daily basis also find they need to adjust to todd american way of run a call center . this make for a balanced telling of a story about cultural difference and and maybe more importantly and the similarity . it may not be a groundbreaking movie by any blockbuster standard and but the sincerity seem to be come straight from the heart . and that something you rarely see in movie nowadays . this movie deserve all the attention it get . so go see it . and if you like it and tell your friend .
