正片剧情简介
电影如蝴蝶 ，漂亮而短寿。千机万变抓住美好固已难能可贵 ，留住永恒之美，庶几无憾。印度气候潮热，多亏人称「奈尔先生」的印度电影保育之父 ，无数濒临损毁边缘的珍贵作品 ，得以保存修复 。由门票收藏家变身菲林卫士 ，不避跋涉直入穷乡挽救烟没的电影，奈尔走过的路可有十万八千里 ？看着旧片重 温 、各式制作公司商标的片头蒙太奇 ，印度电影史彷佛就在经他保留的影框之间无言揭示。遑论波兰大师赞禄西 、斯里兰卡国宝培里斯等锦上添花的访谈，直构一场知性大丰收。 Henri Langlois, the French film preservation pioneer , had it easy compared to P .
