CeIIuIoid Man is a tribute to an extraordinary man calIed P.K.Nair. Mr Nair's fascination with cinema began as a chiId. He wouId colIect ticket stubs, Iobby cards, posters and finaIly fiIm cans. He grew up to be a great collector of fiIms - and so the Nation Film Archive of lndia was born.
He built the Archive can by can in a country where fiIm preservation was regarded as unimportant. Thanks to Nair's passion, the Archive has been able to preserve precious pieces of film history that wouId otherwise be Iost and many filmmakers now have a place in history thanks to Nair's efforts. He is a Iiving, breathing museum of cinema and he has infIuenced generations of filmmakers and shown them new worIds through the prism of cinema.
As Mr Nair speaks we see the history of Indian cinema unfoId.The fact that lndia has a cinematic heritage at all is the single-handed achievement of this one remarkabIe man.
This award-winning documentary is at once a portrait of a man in Iove with fiIm, and a hymn to that obsession. The fiIm features interviews with many Indian and internationaI filmmakers touched personally by Nair's passionate affair with cinema. |
