Winner of 3 first prize awards, this is Amanda Gesine’s personal discovery of what happened to Sikhs after 9/11. She was shocked at the racial profing, verbal abuse and killings by Americans who mistook Sikhs for Arabs because they wore turbans and beards for religious reasons. She was determined to make a entertaining film showing her fellow Americans who are Sikhs, what is Sikhism and how they have contributed to the American economy for over 100 years as hardworking immigrants. This is her legacy to the world !
