Sonar Kella In Indian Parallel Cinema Festival of Australia

About Sonar Kella

Though he is widely known for complex, robust explorations of human and social issues, Satyajit Ray also wrote stories and made films for younger audiences. A 1965 publication of the Bengali children’s magazine Sandesh, which Ray edited, saw the debut of one of his most enduring and beloved characters – Feluda, a brilliant but compassionate detective inspired by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle’s Sherlock Holmes. Ray adapted this character to the screen with the 1977 classic Sonar Kella (translation: The Golden Fortress). The film is an intriguing yet comic adventure, telling the story of Mukul, a young boy who recalls memories of a previous life where he lived in a shining golden fortress, with Ray’s brilliant detective Feluda investigating the case. Sonar Kella has been widely celebrated for combining elements of mystery, comedy and drama with Ray's trademark realism. Join us at the Indian Parallel Cinema Festival of Australia on the 10th of August 2024 at Palace Cinema Norton St in Leichhardt to view Sonar Kella on the big screen in addition to a Q/A discussion session with our chief guest – the son of Satyajit Ray and an esteemed filmmaker in his own right - Sandip Ray
