Celluloid Man plot

Celluloid Man is about PK Nair, the man who founded the National Film Archive of India in 1964 and made an effort to collect as many Indian films as possible. For example, almost all 1700 silent Indian films had been lost, but Nair managed to save a few more. He is also a tireless promoter of cinema, which to him equates to life itself. He screened not only Indian but also foreign films and thus influenced many aspiring directors. In this documentary he talks about his life and obsession with film. Others also speak about the importance of Nair for the preservation of Indian film heritage.
