1913, British India. A man Dhundiraj Phalke, watches the motion pictures for the first time. The film narrates the story of this man , as he struggles to create the first Indian motion picture. From the sale of personal belongings to gather funds to comic frustrations with first time actors and the Phalke's trip to Britain the film keeps us in amused anticipation. Although with some sad turns the underlying energy of the film is highly positive.
Today the highest honor in the Indian film industry is named after this ambitious and enterprising man, the Dada Saheb Phalke Award.
