Mitr (Telugu)

It is easy to dismiss Mitr as a whimsical work. The story of an Indian family in San Francisco, the movie's target-audience is recklessly specific, meaning that it leaves a large part of the junta cold.

And while we are not the kind that stands by non-conformity for its own sake, Mitr certainly deserves a pat on the back for Daring, as they say, to be Different. A small pat.
