The School of the Meri Village (1964)
You must have passed through here at least once, says the voiceover commentary during the opening shots of this film. We learn that express trains pass through Meri without stopping and goods trains slow down, but don’t stop. Only the 7:01 commuter train stops, for just a minute, long enough for the teaching staff to alight. Dedicated to all those who live and work in isolated corners of the country, the film conjures up a small, remote world, virtually unknown to wider audiences.
