An alumnus of Film and Television Institute of India (FTII), Pune Pratik Vats is an independent filmmaker and writer based out Mumbai/Goa. He has been working on both fictions as well as non-fiction films. This is his first feature-length film which got a special mention at the 65th National Film Awards.
‘A Very Old Man With Enormous Wings’ anchored in the twilight years of the life of legendary Indian bodybuilder and former Mr. Universe, Monohar Aich (The winner of the 1952 Mr. Universe contest). A delicate and nuanced film consciously moves away from the evidential burden of a ‘biopic’ towards an intimate portrait – A story that transcends time to reveal the oddities that make human stories worth telling. The film is not only the story of India’s most celebrated bodybuilder, but also a considerate glimpse into a family whose lives have been eclipsed by his celebrity and longevity, in equal measure.
