- The true and unlikely story of an American born, turban-wearing Sikh man, Vishavjit Singh, who after a lifetime of facing prejudice, self-doubt and violence, finally finds acceptance in a superhero costume.
- The animated short documentary tells the story of Vishavjit Singh's life journey as a turbaned and bearded American Sikh. As a child in India, he witnesses an anti-Sikh genocide first-hand and hopes to one day return to the place where he was born, the United States. But when he gets the chance, he finds that even in the land of his birth, he is treated as an outsider. Torn between his religious and national identities, he goes on a journey to find himself. A journey that is once again challenged in the aftermath of September 11th, when anti-Sikh violence erupts once again. Unwilling to give up his identity, but frustrated by the hate he faces on a daily basis, Vishavjit decides to respond in a unique way - by dressing up as a superhero. In so doing, even to his own surprise, he's able to flip the terrorist stereotype on its head and show the world who he really is.—Ryan Westra
