AMAL

MIAAC 2008 Film Festival

Director: Richie Mehta

Synopsis: When Amal, an autorickshaw driver (a sensitive portrayal by Rupinder Nagra) in chaotic New Delhi, generously allows a dishonest, seemingly homeless curmudgeon to cheat him of his fare, strange events are set in motion that affect both in far-reaching ways. Amal is a powerful and touching story of one man’s decency, selfless willingness to help others and honesty.
