    Salam Cinema
    "Would you do anything the cinema asks of you?"

    Starts as a simple slice of life documentary about the process of filmmaking.

    By the end, it's a heartfelt, inspiring feel-good about hopes, dreams and ambitions to become part of the cinema industry.

    Ngl i cried at the clapper-board scene.

    -yes, cinema is for everyone.
