| Summary |
Growing Up Smith is the warm coming-of-age story of Smith, a 10-year-old boy from India living in small town America in 1979. As his family tries to straddle the line between embracing the American Dream and preserving their Indian heritage, Smith sneaks out for a taste of Kentucky Fried Chicken, dons a Saturday Night Fever costume, and falls in love with Amy, the girl next door. And in Amy's father, Butch, Smith also finds the all-American cowboy he wishes his own father could be. |
