A titan of mid-century art cinema, Satyajit Ray has left an indelible mark not only on Bengali consciousness but also on the global cinematic history. 2021 marks the birth centenary of this luminary of world cinema and it is fitting that this is the year we truly learn to honour Ray by appreciating the essence of his cinematic universe. Mr Debasish Mukhopadhyay was the facilitator of the workshop and helped the audience understand the inherent poetry of Ray’s cinematic language. He urged the audience to, “engage in critical discussions of Ray’s work. Building monuments won’t mean as much as a true engagement with the spirit of his work. Let us keep him alive by watching, enjoying, and discussing his art.” The session ended with a short video tribute to Ray’s genius.
