(Mu) Big debut for Bengal. Has all: Rural erotism, critci to feudal India, melodrama, contrats of generations and rich and poors. Shaban Azmi is wonderful in her naiveté, sumitting sexually to her patron, carign for his deaf husband, and, at the end, cursing..'You are cursed by the poor people', she shouts...

"12.5. Ankur - suomalaisittain ÄnkyrĂ€ - on kertomus alhaiseen kastiin syntyneestĂ€ naisesta, joka ajautuu palvelijaksi paikallisen maanomistajan hulivilipojan talouteen. Kovan luokan Ankur-Ă€nkyrĂ€ssĂ€ vetelevĂ€ juoppo aviomies ei auta haaveissa siintĂ€vÀÀ lapsensaantia, mutta pomo vaikuttaisi tuovan apua tĂ€hĂ€n. Puheidensa mukaan kastijĂ€rjestelmĂ€stĂ€ vĂ€hĂ€t vĂ€littĂ€vĂ€ nuori maaherra toimii sanojensa vastaisesti esimerkiksi kohtelemalla velipuoltansa ja tĂ€mĂ€n Ă€itiĂ€ - isĂ€nsĂ€ entis"
