Plot
editThe film depicts the trials and tribulations associated with obtaining a green card in the United States, exploring the secret underworld surrounding the immigration system and the legal complexities that await undocumented immigrants. Green Card Fever explores the dynamics between immigrants from various countries of origin and generations. Primarily, the plot centers around Indian immigrants but involves Argentinians, Chinese, and Middle Eastern immigrants along the way, depicting the present United States as a transnational America. The film is dubbed as a romantic comedy, but in substance it has more to offer.
