At the young age of 22, now controversial filmmaker M. Night Shyamalan, wrote, directed, and acted in his first feature film Praying with Anger. For his first theatrical outing he explores his ancestry, tackles India's biggest issues, and questions the meaning of one's place and purpose in this world...yeah it's a large undertaking especially for his first film right out of college.
