Synopsis

The second chapter in director Satyajit Ray's Apu Trilogy ('Pather Panchali', 'Aparajito', 'The World of Apu'). Following Apu and his family to the city, Ray explores the crowded streets and busy waterfront, introducing us to a gallery of unforgettable images and characters. But when tragedy strikes Apu's family, the boy becomes a man and must choose between the life his father chose -- a life of duty and disappointment -- or a life of his own.
