A short film featuring an Indian call center employee working at home answering phones for 4 different companies. This hilarious film shows the lighter (and funny) side of outsourcing. It has been entered into several film festivals and received a Golden Reel nomination at the VC Los Angeles Pacific Film Festival. Filmmakers Amyn Kaderali, Manish Goyal and Sunil Malhotra did a good job infusing humor in the film.
Riverside International Film Festival says “BEST COMEDY!”
“A Must-See! Fantastic!” – Film Monthly
It has created a lot of noise within the blogosphere and discussion forums flourished with positive and negative comments. Personally, it was simply fun to watch. It brought me back to my early years in the industry, having to answer calls from 2 companies. The confusion of picking up the correct customer is real. The food beside the computer is indicative of what home based agents do while they are on the job. The “cheat sheets” pasted on the walls are still being utilized.
If you want to veer away from the seriousness of the industry to giggle and have fun, go ahead. Enjoy!
