An Indian couple Krishna and Jayamma give birth to a son that, due to a severe facial deformity, causes him to resembles his namesake -- the elephant-headed Hindu god Ganesh. Such serendipity (or is it divine intervention?) pushes the family into the media spotlight. But will it lead to the help they need? This documentary from director Srinivas Krishna follows the family on their journey to Canada to meet with a plastic surgeon, and is as much about struggles of common Indians as the couple's medical crisis. ~ Robert Silva, All Movie Guide

This arty Canadian drama centers on a young Vietnamese woman who marries a petty thief she does not love so she can emigrate to Canada. The rest of her family moves there too, but none of them find a particularly happy life, though Lucky, Lulu's husband, would do anything to insure his wife's happiness, even if it is self-destructive. ~ Sandra Brennan, All Movie Guide
