A Fly on the Wall Premieres at Busan Film Festival

News summary

The documentary 'A Fly on the Wall,' directed by Nilesh Maniyar and Shonali Bose, is set to premiere at the 29th Busan International Film Festival, competing in the Wide Angle Documentary section. The film poignantly explores the final days of their friend Chika Kapadia, who chose physician-assisted suicide in Switzerland, aiming to foster dialogue about dignity in death. Bose emphasizes the film's mission to remove the fear surrounding death, presenting it as a natural and peaceful transition. Maniyar reflects on the life-altering impact Kapadia had on him, highlighting the deep friendship shared over 25 years. The backdrop of Switzerland serves as a striking contrast to the emotional narrative, which intertwines personal reflections with broader themes of choice and vulnerability. This marks the third collaboration between Maniyar and Bose showcased at Busan, following their previous successes, 'The Sky Is Pink' and 'Margarita with a Straw.'
