Mrinal Sen’s "Calcutta 71" still feels uncomfortably current—four stories, one bruised city, and a quiet rage humming below every frame. This Bengali classic peels back the shine of early ’70s Kolkata to show hunger, corruption, and small acts of courage that never make the headlines. The grainy texture and unpolished edges only add to its punch, especially on a physical copy that’s been cared for.
