Invisible Brown Man (2020)
Doctors. Store clerks. Computer nerds. Indian Actors always play the same roles. But what if one Indian man decided he was done with the stereotypes? Sex and Indian food abound when T.J. (a young Indian-American) tries to claw his way out of obscurity in Hollywood. But to land the perfect acting gig, he'll first have to face down male objectification, tokenism and his own outspoken inner monologue.
