Manthan (1976)
Another Shyam Benegal favourite

A remarkable, touching and memorable film. I saw it during my childhood but can never forget it. Shame it has only got a 6.8 on IMDb - probably because its not widely available on DVD and a lot of people have missed out on this gem of Indian cinema. I tried locating it on DVD during a visit to India but was not able to. (Will have to wait till BFI releases it I suppose.)
One of the reviewers mentioned its there on the Amul website. I cant recommend it enough, please see this if you can. You are in for a treat.
Smita Patil and Girish Karnad both have given very genuine, convincing performances.
