(1976)Directed by Satyajit Ray131 minDrama

Somnath Banerjee (Pradip Mukherjee) sits one more exam, sends out one more application, and joins one more crowd of graduates all chasing the same few jobs in Calcutta.

Satyajit Ray keeps him close to his father (Satya Banerjee), who watches the son he put through school learn what the work asks of him.
