KUMAR: MY 88 YEAR OLD BEST FRIEND provides a unique window into the fascinating and unlikely friendship between eighty-eight year old cult film icon Kumar Pallana (The Terminal, Royal Tenenbaums, Rushmore) and thirty-year old indie label proprietor and PR/management guru Dave Brown.

Many mistakenly believe that Wes Anderson and Owen Wilson "discovered" Kumar when they plucked him out of seeming obscurity from behind the counter of his eclectic cafe. But in reality Kumar's hardly new to show business, in fact he's a world renowned vaudevillian entertainer who once shared a stage with the Rat Pack and performed on classic television shows like the Mickey Mouse Club, Ed Sullivan and Captain Kangaroo.

It's been over forty years since Kumar took his signature act, a gravity defying plate-spinning routine, on the road. That is, until now...

Now, his young friend Dave Brown has booked a one-of-a-kind, unconventional tour set to play rock venues, senior centers, state prisons, dive bars, comedy clubs, wrestling matches, yoga classes and everything in-between.

Dave Brown's driven by a sincere desire to show the world the Kumar that he knows, the one who spins a story as well as a plate, who talks of his lessons on love in such a romantic way it would make Casanova blush...this is the Kumar Pallana Dave Brown knows, and by documenting the tour for a feature film, the one Brown hopes to capture.

But what this film will eventually discover is far more than just the 88-year old returning to the stage, and it's even far more than the indefinable magic of Kumar Pallana. Rather, it's the simple magic of Brown and Pallana's unique friendship, a friendship that's stronger than mere words, one that transcends age and shatters stereotypes.

This film will reveal the Kumar who Dave Brown wants you to understand, and why it's so important that you do.

The journey will be full of unexpected twists and turns, and will bring to light two vastly different men on entirely different paths with freakishly similar destinations.

KUMAR: MY 88-YEAR OLD BEST FRIEND is for everyone who has ever had a mentor or an unlikely friend, for those who have dreamt of sharing their lives with others and for those who love adventures.
