Synopsis: Amar Singh, a 35-year-old Punjabi man shaped by the gritty fields of his village, carries a temper as fierce as his roots. Now living in Canada with his wife, Simran, their 12-year-old son, Harman, and 10-year-old daughter, Kiran, Amar grapples with the challenges of immigrant life. When Harman becomes the target of vicious bullying at school by a clique of boys who shine as stars in outdoor soccer, volleyball, and swimming, he conceals his pain, wary of his father’s volatile anger. The weight of exclusion threatens to break the family, until Dr. Kaur, a compassionate psychologist, intervenes. She urges Amar to redirect his fiery shakti—his unyielding energy—into coaching Harman to master the very sports where the bullies dominate.
