Description: Shyam Benegal's award-winning debut film. It was part of the movement in India towards smaller, more realistic films that focused on social issues - class and the caste system, sexism, etc, (Roughly akin to the 'indie' film movement here in the states). This Eagle release is region free and comes with a slipcover (and English subtitles of course). It's important to note that while the back cover says it is 1:85, the actual image is 1:37 aka 4:3 aka Academy. Indeed, though I've tried, I've never found a disc of this film in widescreen, and IMDB claims that 1:37 is correct. I did see it projected some years back in widescreen, but that could have been an error. It doesn't look 'wrong' in 4:3. I just want to be up front about such confusions and unclear history for my fellow film fans. I offer free USPS media mail shipping and 1 business day or less handling on my end for quick delivery. This comes from my personal collection. The slipcover, case, art all all in very nice shape. The disc has a couple of very faint small imperfections that in no way affect play. Please contact me with any questions r problems and I'll always do my best to help. Thanks for looking!
