  • "A young man, graduated from college, is unable to find meaningful employment. He lives in a crowded flat with his widowed mother, a younger, well employed sister, and a revolutionary brother. Family friction and his continuing quest for a job place an unbearable strain on him causing him to act rudely to job interviewers and hallucinate. The pressure increases and is magnified by the tense and impersonal setting of Calcutta and builds to a devastating conclusion."

  • "Siddartha (Dhritiman Chatterjee) tiene que dejar sus estudios de medicina debido a la inesperada muerte de su padre. Ahora debe encontrar un trabajo. En una entrevista de trabajo, a la pregunta de cuál es el acontecimiento más relevante ocurrido en los últimos diez años, en vez de responder la llegada del hombre a la Luna, responde "el coraje humano mostrado por el pueblo de Vietnam". Tras lo cual, su interlocutor le pregunta si es comunista ... Esta es la primera de la Trilogía de Calcuta. Las otras dos son Seemabaddha (Compañía Limitada, 1971) y Jana Aranya (El intermediario, 1976). Las tres tienen lugar en la ciudad de Calcuta y tienen como protagonistas a jóvenes con una buena educación."
