A memorable Indian film with a subject that is relevant even 70 years later in India

The only film from India to win the top award at Cannes, but rarely discussed by fans of Indian cinema.

The subject of the film is as relevant today in 2016 as it was 70 years ago in India. It deals with rich and influential folks influencing decisions on public works for their private gain at the expense of the poorer folks and throwing minor sops at them to mitigate the anger of the affected poor.

The cinematography and expressionist montage are memorable for a 1946 film. One should realize that the director Chetan Anand was working with a crew and cast more at home with theater (IPTA) and yet made the work cinematically credible. Hats off to you, Mr Anand!

A bonus is the music of Pandit Ravi Shankar, the sitar maestro.
