I the first half was a little bit rocky. I didn't know what I was getting into. Second half was insane.
A place for us (2018)
A story of family identity and belonging follows an Indian family through the marriage of their daughter, from the parents' arrival in the United States to the return of their estranged son.
I thought this was spectacularly written I think it examined some really complex themes within a family
