Event Description : Calcutta Presidency College Alumni Association presents 'Chaturanga (The Four Chapters)' Bengali film screening.

The story of a love caught between conflicting worlds of ideas. Lead protagonist Sachish flees from radical positivism to religious mysticism in his quest for life's meaning. However, his search ultimately yields nothing but crushing disillusionment. This is because he cannot square his abstract ideals with the powerful presences of two women in his life. One of them is Damini, a young Hindu widow, and the other is Nanibala, the abandoned mistress of Sachish's own brother. Set in Colonial Bengal in the turn of the twentieth century, the film weaves a tapestry of crisscrossing desires and moralities. The filmmaker will be 
present for an interaction post screening. Winner of the Grand Prix, Bridge Fest 2009, Sarajevo & Golden Reel Award, Nevada Film Festival
