The 60-plus-year-old history of Satyajit Ray's iconic film, Pather Panchali, has been a tumultuous one. Shot in India, which has unfortunately been little-known for preserving its cinematic heritage, the film's negatives were sent to a lab in London for remastering. But before that could happen, a fire engulfed the studio, destroying all hope of restoring the classic to its original glory -- until a lab in Bologna, Italy, stepped in. And in 2015, the film returned in an avatar of thoughtfully restored 4k digital prints with new subtitles.
