Todd Anderson, a sales executive for an American novelty products company,
sees his entire sales force sacked when the company decides to outsource
their customer service jobs to India. Todd’s job is momentarily spared
on the condition that he travels to India to train his replacement.
From the moment that he steps off the plane in Mumbai he is perplexed
by the culture and customs of India. Still, he forges ahead to teach
his new batch of recruits the idiosyncrasies of American business practices
as they strive to meet stringent sales quotas. In time, Todd gets to
know and understand what motivates the people in his office and learns
a few things about life and love in the process.
Director John Jeffcoat was awarded the John Schlesinger Award for Outstanding
First Feature at the Palm Springs Film International Festival for this
original comedy about business practices, culture clashes, love and
understanding.
