Aparajito picks up where the first film leaves off, with Apu and his family having moved away from the country to live in the bustling holy city of Varanasi (then known as Benares). As Apu progresses from wide-eyed child to intellectually curious teenager, eventually studying in Kolkata, we witness his academic and moral education, as well as the growing complexity of his relationship with his mother. This tenderly expressive, often heart-wrenching film, which won three top prizes at the Venice Film Festival, including the Golden Lion, not only extends but also spiritually deepens the tale of Apu.

its just a masterpiece, the acting the nostalgia the purity
Perhaps one of the most beautifully composed films in the history of film with a tragic story to match.
Wonderful down to earth story pitting old family ways with a craving to do more. A lot to say, too little words. Beautiful cinema
