The Magic of Light
3 October 2023
The Indian Cinema Paradise is called Galaxy, it is located in a small town in Gujarat and its hero is a young Brahmin sorcerer's apprentice named Samay, which literally means time. The time that passes and makes projectors and old films obsolete, the time needed to grow up and learn English and above all to leave his small village of Chalala and embark on the great adventure of discovering light and the stories it has to tell.

A beautiful parable from a director who is also a self-taught artist, passionate about cinema, and who gained prominence on the world stage with the success of his debut film, Samsara, in 2001.
