Interesting, I took from it that if you are being fetishized - Does the person really love you or just the thought of you? Are you really an individual to them or just some reaction to combat their upbringing. The girlfriend said as much herself. She didn’t know if her penchant for dating people who didn’t look like her (white) was a reaction to her xenophobic upbringing or not. The ending where she stated that he was also perfect for her showed she truly did love him as an individual and not as a fetishized ideal to prove something to herself by being contrary to her upbringing.
wtf are you yapping about , the film did not specify why they split , it may not be his fault , he might be right, maybe she had a faze and she moved on leaving him with a financial and a mental liability (the child) .
@@sararadley5702 You misread the entire point of the closing scene.

past is very important- it tells a decision making skills of a person- history is greatest teacher- a person who doesnt learn form history- is doomed to repeat it.
This is great..hugs. Shows how our insecurities keep us from so much life.. it’s ok. Compassion. It’s my path to learning to love myself. Thank you great movie
There's so much to evaluate in this. And everyone else in the comments addressed insecurity and a possible fetish really well, BUT the issue with how different their families were should have also been a point to consider. If anyone gave me a gun for Christmas, I'd definitely second guess marrying into the family. There was palpable hostility from her father. Who wants to marry into that?
Good point. Even if she's evolved enough to be independent of her family's expectations, those very different relatives by marriage can add a lot of stress to a relationship.
Getting a gun as a wedding gift, a shotgun is pretty cool. Very expensive and thoughtful. And the father wanted to get to know him better through activities. The Indian wedding dress showed that the daughter and mom aren't in constant communication. Because the parents were unaware of the type of wedding that was going to take place. So even in the worst situation, there'd probably rarely have family get togethers. On the other hand, it seemed like they spent a lot of time at the husband's family's place based on their ease of communication. This was a guy who was just uncomfortable with change and anything out of the ordinary. He also is not an effective communicator because he knew so little about his GF and only seem to want to marry her out of obligation
@@everythingisfine9988 its really not cool. my grandpa was really into guns, his whole family were hunters but he didnt get my dad a gun for new year because its just weird bad luck gift to give to someone you dont know very well and has never shown interest in it. an indian dress is also a weird gift again if she has shown no interest in it and youre not even sure youll have an indian wedding. maybe the girl was right about herself that she wants to rebell against her parents but that rebellion comes at the cost of ruining life for her fiance. because she creates unnecessary conflict that makes the guy the target
katajjaq is traditional Inuk throat singing, it's a game played by pairs of women and girls and it's really fun to watch, and impressive! ruclips.net/video/U21x9KiyGeM/видео.html
y r they all doing this now? jesus. then again tho, better that it's different from all the movies we had constantly glossing over hard topics, using nice music lol
I’m Chicana, my Mom was from south Texas and born to two Spanish speaking south Texans. Dad was from northern Mexico. I was born in Florida and growing up did not have anyone else around that was like me. All my extended relatives were in Texas. So I grew up with some traditional Mexican customs, and I enjoyed Spanish language music. But my Spanish grew weak as my English grew strong. I ended up marrying a man from Chiapas, the most southern state in Mexico. I never felt like I was the type of woman he should be with. I lived with that insecurity for almost 20 years. I was never close to his family, never got to go visit his parents, never saw where he grew up. Holidays were hard because he was homesick for the cooking and ways of celebrating, I felt especially sensitive at that time. Imagine feeling like a failure every Christmas 😢 Eventually he cheated on me with someone from South America. I wasn’t fully surprised. For my part, I know I probably held a lot of myself back due to lack of self confidence. But, when I discovered the affair, he genuinely wanted me to accept it as a way of life. Him and his family with her, and me & our children. Nope. I was not interested in adopting that “tradition”.
"I like people who are different from me. Why is that such a crime?" I haven't dated much, but there is so much loaded into this one line that I can relate to. I think it's generally a good idea to sometimes take the time to examine the reasons you're dating someone. Intellectual curiosity about other cultures is not the same as being truly in love with someone, and while obviously both phenomenon can and have occured around the same person, one shouldn't be confused for the other, especially when you'll be basing your entire futures around said relationship. Exploring another should be a perk, not the main attraction.
My pediatrician used to call me “beta” and cup my chin in her hand- I know this was not at all about that moment, but it immediately gave me warm feelings. I was at the doctor a lot for respiratory problems as a child and it was always a comfort. I miss her smile. Lovely, lovely job to everyone involved.
This was so good!! I can’t believe how much was packed into less than 15 minutes! It was so painful to watch him spiraling but only because it was so well done. Fantastic work!!
You have to believe in the love you have. My brother and sister in law have been married for 48 years. Black and white. The choices are more in the friends who stay and those who don't, how and where you raise your kids etc.
As an Indian guy! I'd like to bring forth a totally valid point, which is marrying in another culture is not easy and requires some effort on both sides. People who aren't willing to put in extra work to sort out the differences will often face the same fate as shown in the vid. Also divorce after a kid is unthinkable for Indians, so it's easy to see who encouraged it. But still... Being so insensitive to your partner's feelings isn't a good sign. Insecurities isn't something that can't be worked upon. I mean just imagine if they were living in India... The girl would've been totally lost and would regularly face such insecurities for being the odd one out. This is a normal thing for people distant from their own culture, so try and be a bit more supportive.
I've just come from Big Ears. I don't think she was fetishising Indian guys, it was more a personal preference. For him, his worries and insecurities really overtook having a balanced perspective and inevitably jeopardised his relationship. I wonder if he'd had therapy he could've looked at his emotions and thought processes more objectively and the outcome could've been they were still together. But I feel empathy for him. Haven't a lot of people done this? I have. Been so caught up in a perspective which one fully convinces themselves was right, but it's a perspective which is skewed, dominated by a personal narrative which most likely stemmed from fear and a need to self protect. Not realising until hindsight, one has made a choice which completely affected the outcome? 💖
Well done short film! Insecurity has destroyed several of my past relationships too. Such a shame because the insecure person feels helpless. Well demonstrated by the chaotic music/voices playing in his head.
As someone who has rarely dated within my culture, this is very relatable. There are insecurities on both sides. Wouldn't he be better off with a woman who can relate to his family and cook him the food he likes best. Would he feel uncomfortable around my family? Darker woman are so gorgeous. But for a successful relationship, we can't let insecurities come in between. Here's to hoping I find my dark and handsome man someday!
Oh this hits deep. So many of us have been there. Love’s not easy, no matter where. And then throw a cute kid like that in the mix… all you can hope for that the adults will figure it out for the sake of that child. That’s life.
The script is good and very interesting. Poor dude, played himself out of a family without any actual valid reason - it was all in his head 😁 Good cast too! 🥰🙋♂️🇫🇮
This popped up on my feed and immediately drew me in with the cover. So glad I watched it. Have sent it on to some freinds to watch as well. Fantastic short film, thank you for your work and congrats on it!
His concern was valid since there was definitely a pattern but she explained where her preferences came from and didn't even pay much attention since it was general to exoticism, not Indian men. Where it falls off is that he doesn't want to believe that there was more to their relationship than attraction. They were in too deep for details about their meeting to put everything into doubt. If they had just met and he thought they had something serious when she just wanted to fuck an Indian, then yeah, that's racial fetishism. His fiancée wanted to build a life with him, not satiate a fancy.
In my experience, when it’s happening the person is pretty open about it. They will come right out and say, “I like ___”. Or “my ex was ___” or comment on something about you that is related to whatever quality they’re fetishizing. It always weirds me out that it actually works on some people.
Honestly I get this. I get his insecurities. I married a white man(and im black) and at first it seemed like love but any more, it only seems like I'm a black girl fetish to him. Why? you ask. Because the girls he cheated on me with are black girls.
Being attracted to certain features doesn’t have to be about racism. Insecurities and being reductive can lead a person to project it as racism though. Your ex’s biggest issue is cheating-he just happens to like black women. Assuming you’re hetero, you like men, does that make you homophobic?
From what I've observed, "Mummyji" is usually a form of address more for a mother-in-law rather than a mother (typically in Hindi-speaking or Punjabi families). So Varun wouldn't have called his mother that, but rather "Maa", "Mamma", "Mummy", or something like that. But overall, a rather interesting and poignant film!
A lack of self-worth can ruin oneself/relationship, so does having multiple partners also will do the same. You can't settle with one if you in the past have 10 different partners one will always be on a lookout for another.
RUclips recommended this film to me, maybe because I am Indian. Whole Oscar thing made me watch it. I am sure writers and director were trying to point out something, I don't know, I feel it's not communicated well, especially to audience like me. Maybe it's related to cultural things abroad. Anything Indian, loved it ❤
As we saw in the classic Spike Lee joint “Jungle Fever”, racial fetishes are REAL, y’all. The key question here is: “Is the relationship based on love (which is deep) or based on the fetish (which is shallow).” A racial fetish feels very different than an interracial relationship that is based on love, admiration, honesty & respect (especially when it involves women of colour👈🏽). I will say this was an honest movie🎥 but I didn’t buy that she loved the Caucasian guy at the end (a Black guy would have been a nice addition to the story, just saying🤷🏽♀️) But IMO this couple did the right thing by breaking up…I believe she did fetishize him and that would have forever plagued him.❤️🩹
WOW! WHAT A MOVIE...GREAT PERFORMANCE AND DELIVERY OF TRUEST OF TRUTH, UN-PORTRAYED, EVERYDAY HAPPENING AROUND THE WORLD...LOTS OF RACISM SEEN FROM AN INDIAN PERSPECTIVE...IT WAS WEIRD TO SEE... SOOOO, MUCH TIME WAS WASTED AND FOREVER LOST FROM RACISM; FROM WHOMEVER THE PERSPECTIVE IS FROM !!! AGAIN, WOW!
I once said to my white girlfriend (now ex) i fancy fish and chips and i couldn't understand the question she asked.. 'how many white girl's did a date before her?' I honestly didnt understand the question... could not see why she was asking me this question. I now understand.
Wow, the film's theme about insecurity is very relatable.

Really great film! Stumbled upon it by algorithmic accident I guess you would call it,..hahaha!
The gun scene seem very significant, but I am not sure why?
« It’s racist » lol
Beautiful, very heartfelt. But it is the state and condition of many of us today...
I can't even with the tech stuff, withdrawals are SUPPOSED to be FAST but it's a toss-up every time
