Supermen of Malegaon
(2012)
Directed by Faiza
Ahmad Khan this this is some where between a making of documentary
and an exploration of a sub-culture. Impoverished Muslims in an
industrial Indian city make near zero budget parodies of Bollywood
and Hollywood films they love.
This is a fun look at
the love of cinema and the way it inspires people to create
themselves. Despite having few resources pretty impressive results
are achieved by those working on the fan film which is a real
inspiration. The film manages to capture something universal even
though it is looking at a very unique situation.
4/5
