Jean Renoir’s first color feature, filmed entirely in India, adapts Rumer Godden’s novel. It contrasts the coming‑of‑age struggles of three young women with the timeless flow of the Bengal River that shapes their daily lives. Renoir’s appreciation of Indian culture gives the film a lyrical look at fleeting emotions against enduring beauty.
