Praying with Anger traite de l'évolution culturelle de l'indien Dev Raman (joué par M. Night Shyamalan) qui a été élevé aux États-Unis, mais qui décide de retourner voir son pays d'origine, l'Inde. Pour s'intégrer, il utilisera le programme d'échanges d'étudiants d'une université. Au début, il sera réticent à l'égard ce programme, mais avec l'insistance de sa mère, il réussira à s'y faire et à s'intégrer. Pendant son séjour, il reçoit les conseils d'un de ses amis, Sanjay (joué par Mike Muthu). Mais Raman les ignorera, et, dès lors, leurs relations ne seront plus les mêmes, se transformant en colère et inimitié. (texte officiel du distributeur)

A typical representative of movies about a young punk from the city who returns to the country to find his roots, his humility, himself, blah blah blah. Except that here the countryside is India. Twenty-year-old Shyamalan self-financed a project in which he wanted to prove how capable he was of making a conventional film. As such it's terribly cautious, full of clichés, and lacks the kind of youthful, passionate ruthlessness you expect from the debuts of twenty-something directors. It's just terribly boring.

M. Night Shyamalan showed in his first film that he was all about telling stories that weren't empty, and that had something to say. Praying with Anger will likely have a lot of what M. Night Shyamalan himself contemplated about himself and his roots. It's not a great statement, but you can tell it's personal.
