“Nair Saab has always fascinated me. Iu0026#39;ve tried to gather as much information about him and his work in the field archiving as I possibly can. So to my delight when I came across this documentary on Netflix I had to watch it right away.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eItu0026#39;s amazing to hear the tales of his life from his own recollection and that of others. A legendary man who is solely responsible for starting the system of archiving films in India.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eIf only I could meet the man himself I would love to talk films and know his opinions and share mine. Iu0026#39;m a filmmaker and screenwriter so a person like him who is so well-versed in the craft would be an experience of a lifetime.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eYouu0026#39;ve got to see the documentary to understand how important he is to the film world.”
