Synopsis
Tucked away near the heart of India, the tiny town of Malegaon is wrought with communal tension and economic depression. To escape the harsh reality of their world, its people seek refuge in the magic of movies. This passion for cinema has spurred a group of cinema enthusiasts to make their own films--quirky, low budget, socially aware and notoriously funny spoofs of Bollywood films. Now, we follow them on their latest venture as they take on for the first time a Hollywood classic: Superman. Occasionally hilarious, occasionally tragic, and always heartwarming, Supermen of Malegaon is a tribute to the undefeatable spirit of filmmaking. The film has garnered international acclaim, including the Audience Choice award for Documentary at the Indian Film Festival of Los Angeles (IFFLA) and a special screening at the Museum of Modern Art in New York City. Directed by Faiza Ahmad Khan. Marketing Partner - AVS TV

...this film captures the joys and tribulations of a very particular love affair with movies - Full Frame Film Festival
It is clearly the most amusing film you’re ever likely to watch on the making of another movie. - Mumbai Mirror
