Synopsis
A day in the life of a Muslim man living in Coimbatore, a predominantly Hindu city in Tamil Nadu, Nasir is observational and un-sensational in its approach. There is no incremental build of tension, just a generous and nuanced portrait of a simple, decent man scraping a living as a salesman. For Nasir (Koumarane Valavane), the day is just like any other. The abrupt explosion of violence which closes the film is unforeseen by both Nasir and the audience.
