Gas Station Attendent
The Gas Station Attendent
"Murthy doesn’t just tell the audience a story; she opens up a portal into her own soul. It’s rare that you leave a documentary feeling like you really knew the subject, but Murthy translates her father’s warmth and determination so eloquently." -Film Threat
A daughter reflects on her father’s life — weaving the story of his miraculous journey from the streets of India with the realities of life in America. Using recorded phone calls with her dad while he worked nights at a gas station along with home movies past and present, this deeply intimate film is a meditation on family, the immigrant experience, and the dreams we carry with us.
