Last Film Show is an ode to cinema

The semi-biographical coming-of-age drama, follows nine-year-old cinema lover Samay as he moves heaven and earth in pursuit of his 35mm dreams, unaware of the heart-breaking times that await him. According to Nalin, who told The Federal in an interview, “Just in a short span of one hundred years, what have we done to this earth? What have we done to our souls? For me, The Last Film Show is a meditation on all these concerns. A wake-up call to mindfulness. It’s a jubilatory story about the birth, life, death, and rebirth of films.”

In a statement on Netflix streaming his film, Nalin said, “Last Film Show is a celebration of films, food, friends, and family and now audiences across India can do exactly that from the comfort of their homes while watching it. As a filmmaker, I dream that the movie reaches the maximum number of people, and now, thanks to Netflix, Last Film Show is just a click away.”
