Flim The Movie

2014, 90 minutes

A conman actor

Ravi, a simple man who spent his youth lurking on the outer fringes of Bollywood, stands as much chance of achieving his wild dream of Oscar glory as anyone. Movie audiences view Ravi's surreal and inglorious journey to the stuff of movie legend through the hand­‐held lens of an amateur documentary crew. Naturally, Ravi fully expects that, this Film, the making of his film, to be a glossy, showbiz tale of one man's meteoric rise to the top. But when accusations of money laundering and sexual harassment start to fly, Ravi's fragile grip on both his dream and his sanity start to crumble. The police launch a criminal investigation. And the footage from the documentary team take on a different meaning when used as evidence against him.
