Touch of Pink is a 2004 movie about Alim (Jimi Mistry), a young gay Ismaili Muslim man. He faces the hardships of coming out of the closet to his mother Nuru (Suleka Mathew), as well as hardships in his relationship with Giles (Kristen Holden-Ried). Alim has an imaginary friend (or maybe a guardian angel or ghost friend, depending on how literally or symbolically one takes the film) who is supposedly Cary Grant. Grant (Kyle MacLachlan) gives Alim advice when Alim is in trouble. Unfortunately, the advice often seems to make more trouble.
