Pather Panchali
Apu is born into a Bengali village family already sliding - a father chasing work as priest and poet, a mother holding the house together, an old aunt tolerated at its edge. He and his sister Durga steal sweets, follow the candy seller, watch a travelling play, and one day run through the fields to see a train. A boy's village childhood of small wonders and losses.
