Apu is not only the logical last act of the trilogy but a unique work in its own right.

The World of Apu completes, in alternations of suffering and joy, one of the most vital and abundant movies ever made.

Great acting, remarkable use of locations, a humanistic ethos that's both wise and wary.

As the concluding film of a much beloved trilogy, Apur Sansar is a fitting capstone to one of world cinema’s greatest coming-of-age stories.
