This lively and engaging documentary charts the progress of four young Canadians with dreams of Bollywood stardom--with varying degrees of success.

Nisha Pahuja's film offers a fascinating look at the power of popular culture in shaping diasporic fantasies. This screening will be followed by a panel descussion. 88 minutes.
