Celebrating its 60th anniversary this year, Indian auteur Satyajit Ray described Charulata as “the one film I would make the same way if I had to do it again."


Charu is the beautiful and intellectual wife of a local newspaper editor but finds herself bored in her ornate mansion. Intrigue arrives in the form of her husband’s cousin - an aspiring writer who ignites a creative and passionate desire in Charu.
