My second introduction from the Satyajit Ray retrospective at UC Berkeley's Pacific Film Archive on Aug 9th 2014. This time it was for Joy Baba Felunath (1977), aka The Elephant God. (http://www.bampfa.berkeley.edu/film/FN20723). Big thanks to Susan Oxtoby, senior curator at PFA, for the opportunity. It was great to talk to some Ray fans before & after the movie, & to hear the warm applause from a full house for the movie at the end.

Thanks also to my nephew Vikram (@vram) for the video.
