Reel Lives is an intimate portrait of Brian, a lifelong cinephile who is 92 and has been going to the cinema for 85 years. Made to celebrate his 92nd birthday, the film traces a life, from childhood screenings to present day visits, cinema has shaped his memories, routines, and sense of belonging. It is a quiet celebration of devotion, memory, and the enduring ritual of turning up for the love of film.
