Praying with Anger

This 1992 independent drama, marking M. Night Shyamalan's debut as writer, director, producer and star, follows an Indian American college student who travels to India for a year-long exchange program at his mother's urging. During his stay he learns more about his late father's hidden feelings toward him and leans on a local friend for guidance, though he increasingly disregards this advice. The trip exposes deep friction between American and Indian cultural values, leaving the young man grappling with unresolved family history and cultural belonging.
