In the 1980s, there were only 63 Black films by, for, or about Black Americans. But in the 1990s, that number quadrupled, with 220 Black films making their way to cinema screens nationwide. What sparked this “Black New Wave?” Who blazed this path for contemporaries like Ava DuVernay, Kasi Lemmons and Jordan Peele? And how did these films transform American culture as a whole?

We see The Sci-Fi Christian, in all its iterations, as being about the collision between faith and nerdom. We believe that good genre fiction is about more than just entertainment. We seek to engage with the themes and philosophies behind our favorite stories, wrestling with the big ideas within speculative fiction. We’re unabashedly nerdy and unabashedly Christian. Even if your faith background differs from ours, we look forward to interacting with you at The Sci-Fi Christian!

Season 9, Ep. 4: ABCD

This week, we are revisting 1999's "ABCD," directed by Krutin Patel. It stars Sheetal Sheth and Faran Tahir as Indian American siblings, aka the "American Born Confused Desis" of the title. Madhur Jaffrey plays their mom, who has many opinions about who her kids should marry, and Aasif Mandvi (of "The Daily Show" fame) plays Sheetal Sheth's charming immigrant love interest.
The late '90s and early 2000s were a prolific time for indie Indian American films exploring the second-gen experience, with "ABCD," "American Chai" (which also starred Sheetal and Aasif), "American Desi" (which featured Kal Penn), and "Chutney Popcorn" (another great comedy by Nisha Ganatra that we covered in a previous season).
To contextualize, these films are all pre-"Bend It Like Beckham" (2002) and pre-"The Office" (2005-13), aka before the rise of Mindy Kaling. For this generation, Sheetal Sheth is the OG star who provided a much-appreciated image of a modern, rebellious, confident Indian American woman onscreen.
