'I never expected to cry my eyes out over somebody winning a contest (for a car of all things—I can’t even drive!), but 'Little America' had other plans,' writes blevitt93.

having eye-watering budgets—it feels like the days of small-scale, intimate storytelling are behind us. Thankfully,is back with its brilliant second season, to remind us that there’s still a place for small, impactful stories.created by Lee Eisenberg, Emily V. Gordon, and Kumail Nanjiani, is a heartwarming anthology that follows the stories of people all linked by one thing—they are immigrants living in America.

But a previous scene in the episode reveals to us the repercussions of that upheaval. Sachini and her father have an awkward phone call that’s laced with disappointment from Hashan and considerable shame from Sachini. It’s clear that this sacrifice Hashan made for his family hasn’t paid off in the way anyone would like.

“The 9th Caller” works so perfectly because Sachini’s story is not only distinctly individual, it’s also universal. I found myself relating deeply to the so-called millennial malaise that she experiences. She struggles in the face of a challenge, walking out of an exam at university because the pressure is too high, ultimately dropping out altogether. That leads to a heartbreaking scene, where Hashan discovers Sachini working at a buffet, unaware that she dropped out of school.

Which is why it’s so exciting to watch Sachini throw herself into winning that car. The scenes of the car-kissing contest are thrilling, as Krishnan films it like a high-level sports event, with extreme close-ups maximizing the intensity in what’s ultimately a fairly ridiculous situation. The tension remains impressively high as time updates appear on screen in large white text, and the contest goes for a ridiculous 50 hours.
