A friendship walks the distance between life and death in Shonali Bose and Nilesh Maniyar’s A Fly on the Wall. Loved ones pour in from different parts of the world to raise one last toast with Chika Kapadia. In the coming week, he has an appointment at Dignitas in Switzerland for physician-assisted suicide; he chose not to be tied to tubes and wires in his last moments.

A filmmaker friend, Shonali Bose, tasked by Chika to shoot his countdown to his last days, records her own complicated feelings in taking on this responsibility and weaves a tale of dignity in passing away through the lens of friendship.
