“Afilm maker, a storyteller, an artist, a musician and truly a renaissance man”: that is how veteran film director Shyam Benegal has described Satyajit Ray. The master, who died 20 years ago in 1992, has left behind a treasure-trove of archival material. These films, sketches and writings are being preserved and restored by the Satyajit Ray Society, an organisation that has taken up the task of saving and archiving the director’s legacy for posterity.
