A haunting portrait of a fading aristocracy clinging to past glory. Set in a crumbling mansion on the banks of the Ganges river, “The Music Room” unfolds in the twilight of Bengal’s feudal past. The film follows a once-proud zamindar (landowner) who hosts one final concert as his world collapses around him. With unforgettable music and melancholic grandeur, Satyajit Ray’s masterpiece remains one of his most poignant meditations on time, pride, and irreversible loss.
This film will be preceded by Abbas Kiarostami’s short film The Chorus.
