The College of Central Florida Ira Holmes International Film Series will continue Tuesday, Jan. 30, featuring the award-winning film “Pather Panchali.”

In 1955, the world was introduced to a compelling and significant new cinematic voice with the debut of Director Satyajit Ray’s film, resonating eloquently across the global stage. A depiction of rural Bengali life in a style inspired by Italian neorealism, this naturalistic but poetic evocation of a number of years in the life of a family introduces us to both little Apu and, just as essentially, the women who will help shape him. With resplendent photography informed by its young protagonist’s perpetual sense of discovery, the film –which won an award for Best Human Document at Cannes – is an immersive cinematic experience filled with elemental power.

A screening will begin at 2 p.m. at the Appleton Museum of Art, 4333 E. Silver Springs Blvd., and is free to all museum and film series members; nonmembers pay museum admission. A second screening will begin at 7 p.m. at the 91��Ƭ Ocala Campus, 3001 S.W. College Road, Building 8, Room 110. The screening at the 91��Ƭ Ocala Campus is free and open to the public.
