This film is the Apu Trilogy (The Song of the Road, The Unvanquished, The World of Apu), with the first part connecting to the place of growth, the second part to the relationship with parents (in the second part, Apu's parents successively abandon him), and the third part to the connection with lovers and children. The most prominent aspect of the entire film is viewing the commonality of human life and nature through the perspective of a boy under ten years old. The "Apu Trilogy" established Satyajit Ray's esteemed artistic status in the history of Indian cinema. It is challenging to categorize and define the style of Ray's films. However, it is certain that his films are timeless classics in India, possessing literary and artistic value, with universal stories that resonate deeply with people. Renowned Japanese director Akira Kurosawa provided an insightful evaluation of Ray: if we quietly observe and understand the evolution of humanity's love, you will be moved and resonate with Ray's films; they are a benchmark of the film industry. The Indian film master Satyajit Ray's "Apu Trilogy" has won the Best Human Documentary Award at the Cannes Film Festival. Each of the three films stands as an outstanding work, providing spiritual shock through their simplicity, deep emotions, and unique visual aesthetics, thereby establishing Ray's position among the world's top directors.
