The story
Set in the turbulent 1930s, this is the story of a poor Chinese hawker selling his merchandise, Chinese silk, in the streets of Calcutta. This was the time when China was repulsing a brutal attack of militarist Japan and when an outraged Rabindranath Tagore wrote to his friend in Japan, the great poet Noguchi: “I wish your countrymen, whom I love so much, not success but remorse”. This film holds the dubious distinction of being the first to be banned (though temporarily) in independent India.
Directed by Mrinal Sen. Starring Kali Bannerjee, Manju Dey, Smriti Biswas, Bikash Roy, Suruchi Sengupta, Ajit Chatterjee.
