Sinekatalog’s take
Mani Kaul's film on the Hindi poet Gajanan Madhav Muktibodh avoids conventional biography and layers poetry, images and mood. Dense, rigorous and meditative, it is a demanding but rewarding work of Indian art cinema.Sinekatalog’s own editorial review – not a user or critic quote.
