PATHER PANCHALI SKETCHBOOK

In 1955, Pather Panchali made international headlines and placed Indian cinema on the world map. In the sixty years since, the film has acquired a cult status. As has its storyboard which Ray used as his reference to shoot the film. Believed to have been forever lost after the film-maker donated it to the Cinematheque Francaise, the storyboard is now available as a book, along with other interesting and previously unseen aspects on the film. As much a chronicle of the work of a genius as it is a handbook for every aspiring film-maker, this is a collector's edition.
