[icernet] Satyajit Ray film fest in Moscow

[Arul Selvan]

A weeklong retrospective of legendary Indian film director Satyajit 
Ray's masterpieces opened here with the screening of his "Jalsaghar" 
filmed in 1958.

Moscovites would also be able to view the Indian maestro's Berlin film 
festival award-winner "Charulata", and other great works - "Aranyer Din 
Ratri", "Shatranj Ke Khilardi", "Heerak Rajar Deshe" and "Ghare-Baire" 
at the festival organised at the prestigious Charlie Chaplain Hall of 
the Moscow Cinema Museum.

This is the first major retrospective of Ray's films in Russia since the 
USSR fragmentation in 1991 and is seen as part of the cultural build-up 
ahead of President Vladimir Putin's India visit next month.
