American-born Ray Rehman comes home one night to find his Pakistani father on his doorstep. Ray’s Caucasian mother threw him out. It’s an awkward time for his father to move in as Ray just proposed to his Caucasian girlfriend – who hasn’t given him an answer. While trying to get his parents back together, Ray meets a South Asian girl of mixed descent, just like him, and must decide where his identity truly lies.

Shades of Ray is a comedic, heartfelt tale about the idiosyncrasies that make family and relationships so unique, no matter how or where they originate.
