#SumitraPeries’s Sinhala-language debut feature, which she also wrote and edited, is a masterpiece of rhythm and mood. #GehenuLamai (Girls) will be screened at this year’s #Cannes Film Festival (May 13-24) in the section devoted to classics and restored titles.

Gehenu Lamai will be presented along with #SatyajitRay’s Aranyer Din Ratri (1970) by the Film Heritage Foundation, the Mumbai-based organisation dedicated to the preservation of cinema.

as a child I loved this #movie as a comedy. the lively humour is extremely well delivered by every actor.

as an adult I feel the pain and fear shown on the faces of the farmer, the mining labour and the teacher. I can appreciate the political satire that it is.

watching it today was almost like
#SatyajitRay talking to the current population of #India, before the #LokSabhaElections2024, through this 1980 movie. he is telling us to be extremely careful of the ruler who is willing to #brainwash the public using targeted #misinformation.

I was thinking about the present conditions of #India when I suddenly thought of revisiting this #movie by #SatyajitRay. "Hirak Rajar Deshe" (In the Land of the Diamond-King). Its portrayal of moving to dictatorial rule is dangerously accurate.

I really wanted to share
this #song from the #film. It is in #bengali so I shall provide a translation.

I see such funny things in the world.
Everywhere I look, I am confused beyond words.
I can't make sense of this world.
Oh brother!

Look at the good fellows stuck in their dilapidated homes.
The evil one ascends the throne.
The wheat farmer can't manage two square meals.
The diamond mine's labours are living in poverty.
Oh Brother, how funny is our world!
The full movie has decent subtitles. I would really encourage watching it.

J’ai vu récemment La Déesse de Satyajit Ray sur un sujet similaire. Même si cette tradition n’existe pas au Bengale, il existe une croyance selon laquelle une incarnation humaine de Kali serait possible, ce qui a pu conduire à des évènements comme ceux décrits dans le film.

“Aachar & Co.,” lovely #WesAnderson-inspired Kannada trailer. Are its 360° portrait shots homage to Wes or the original, #SatyajitRay? via SC youtu.be/ouGKqSDN4EU?si=Pw43sv

Les personnages les plus cyniques et rétrogrades sur le cinéma sont montrés de façon défavorable.
La conversation au cœur du film entre l'acteur et une jeune journaliste qui l'interview, au départ plutôt hostile à lui, est très joliment écrite.
