The film primarily traces American-born filmmaker Ellis R. Dungan's years in India. Born in 1909, Dungan reached India in 1935 intending to stay for 6 months but ended up staying for 15 years. During this period, he brought many technical innovations to the developing Tamil Film Industry of the 1930s and '40s, and infused a sense of professionalism into its filmmaking.
