About this product

Product Information

To call CHUTNEY POPCORN a chick flick would be ironic, as the film treats a wide variety of topics with an openness that is careful not to exclude any group--specifically men. However, the film is, in essence, about women loving women--as sisters, as mother and daughter, as friends, as lovers--so to call it anything other than a chick flick would be a lie. Nisha Ganatra, the film's director and writer, stars as the excellent, introspective, accepting lead Reena. She peacefully glides past flowing grain fields on her motorcycle, paints henna designs on her beautiful blond girlfriend, Lisa (Jill Hennessy, whose lovely muscular arms will win over any viewer, regardless of sexual preference), snaps photos of other henna-painted "dykes," and participates in traditional ceremonies with her Indian-American family. However, when Reena offers to be a surrogate mother for her sister, Sarita (Sakina Jaffrey), and her white brother-in-law, Mitch (Nick Chinlund), all of the film's relationships--familial and romantic, begin to shift. The hilarious artificial insemination scenes are rife with complex tension. Each member of the family--especially Reena's mother, Meena (Madhur Jaffrey)--has weird feelings about the plan. With a fitting acoustic guitar soundtrack and a light-hearted approach to asking serious questions about difficult issues, Ganatra gets viewers thinking with CHUTNEY POPCORN.

  • Stepping outside of "the realm of safe" to look at life

    Lesbian movies are frequently hacked together, an intent being covered with just enough action and plot to be acceptable, but in the case of Chutney Popcorn the story of a woman who finds herself coping with an ethnic background, family relationships, her sexual orientation-- all at once-- brings out a rich and complex story, one that frequently has nuances that don't show up until the second or third time it is viewed. There are flavors and complex issues underneath "flippant" treatments, the flippant method being used in an attempt to avoid the grave nature of the questions, questions that might be regarding one thing on the surface, but that are actually deeply into some other realm. Dancing around issues, trying to be true to oneself and one's family, and trying to cope with being an ...
