Plot
A devout upper-class Hindu has a vision in a dream that his daughter-in-law is the human incarnation of the Goddess Kali and begins worshipping her.
Sinekatalog’s take
Satyajit Ray's drama follows a young wife whose devout father-in-law decides she is the goddess Kali incarnate. Sharmila Tagore is haunting in a quiet, powerful critique of blind faith and its human cost.Sinekatalog’s own editorial review – not a user or critic quote.
