Satyajit Ray's Apu Trilogy

In this episode, I share my thoughts, feelings, and emotions about Satyajit Ray's monumental Apu Trilogy, which consists of Pather Panchali (1955), Aparajito (1956), and Apur Sansar (1959). Note: This episode contains SPOILERS and goes into specific plot details in the trilogy .


Correction: I mention the Partition of India that happened in 1947. The Apu Trilogy is set well before that time. Apologies for the error.
