About
Out of 400 Irani cafes that inhabited the city only 25 still struggle to remain open. Surely expensive cafes and restaurants have their own style but lack the character that any Irani cafe had. Is face value everything? If it is, then why are these cafes going extinct considering they have one of the most charming faces of them all???
Through this documentary the makers have tried to capture the sense of nostalgia that these cafes offered. Documenting cafes around Mumbai and by talking to the owners and celebrities who frequented these places, the filmmaker has tried to share her own experience of finding the reason behind the shut down of these prestigious cafes that once represented the city's character and now represent the fading heritage of this great big city.
