In DOSA HUNT, members of Vampire Weekend, Das Racist, Yeasayer, Neon Indian, and the Vijay Iyer Trio join filmmaker/Stereogum Editor Amrit Singh to form a multicultural posse on a quest to find their hometown’s best dosa. The beloved South Indian crepe in turn inspires a look at the shared and respective cultures of this vibrant group of NYC artists in the wilds of their city. DOSA HUNT is a snapshot of a transitional generation in America’s immigrant/art experience, in hot pursuit of good food.
Amrit Singh has served as Executive Editor of Stereogum.com for seven years, writing and producing the website into a leading voice in independent music. His video journalism has appeared on ABC, MTV, and Fuse. (He also served as Editor of the University of Wisconsin International Law Journal, and is a NY State Bar certified attorney, but please don’t remind his father of this.) DOSA HUNT is his directorial debut.
