Meghay Dhaka Tara - Tues 27.11.07

মেঘে ঢাকা তারা
Meghay Dhaka Tara
(The Cloud-Capped Star)

A film by Ritwik Ghatak 1960

Set at the time of partition, a bengali Bhadralok family (from East Bengal, moved to Calcutta) endures. But Nita, loved only by her brother, who wants to be a singer, suffers misfortune after misfortune. Melodrama poignant.

All welcome, Goldsmiths Cinema, 6pm Tuesday 27 November.
