Note: Director John Jeffcoat hosts an audience discussion at the 5:15pm Sunday screening.
What do you do if the only way to save your job is to fly off to India and train your replacement? Well, if you're anything like Todd (Josh Hamilton), you go — and then you learn something. But John Jeffcoat's surprisingly delightful first feature is no mere preachy-teachy critique about the clash of cultures or the insidious effects of globalization (though there's much of both). Instead, it's a wondrous look at how the way we do what we do informs who we become.
