About

The Lost Jewels will screen from an archival 35mm film print

Please note: The three short films that form the feature film Teen Kanya (Three Daughters) are screened here as they were released internationally and reflect how they were restored. Teen Kanya (Two Daughters) was the initial international release and has been restored by the Academy as one film. It is comprised of The Postmaster and The Conclusion. The Lost Jewels is restored as a separate film and will screen directly after.

Three Daughters is a trilogy of short films made as a tribute to a highly influential figure in Satyajit Ray's life and work – the Bengali polymath Rabindranath Tagore - in the centenary of his birth in 1961. Based on three short stories by Tagore Three Daughters consists of: The Postmaster, Monihara (The Lost Jewels) and Samapti (The Conclusion).

The Lost Jewels is a ghost story centring on a lonely wife who cannot return her husband's love and is instead obsessed with her jewellery and ornaments.
