The three films of this trilogy -- the last one is Apur Sansar -- are widely considered the best Indian films ever made. Also see Ray's other great films The Music Room, The Big City and Charulata and Ritwik Ghatak's brilliant films Subarnarekha and Reason, Debate and a Story.

Apur Sanshar, the last part of the trilogy, is worth seeing also. The complete work is monumental.
