Only 12 minutes.
In 1964, renowned filmmaker Satyajit Ray was asked to create a short film for ‘ESSO World Theater’, a cultural showcase presented on television and funded by the American oil company Esso.
Asked to write and direct the film in English, Ray opted instead to make a film without words.
The result is a poignant fable of friendship and rivalry. As he did for many of his films, Ray composed the music for the film, including the haunting tune played on the flute.
The film is unarguably the most allegorical of Ray’s entire body of work. Despite being a simple tale involving two young boys, it deals with such complex subjects as loneliness, the human capital, socio-economic divide, the philosophy of happiness and contentment, the evils of consumerism, the futility of war, mankind’s resistance to oppression and the true meaning of freedom.
Ray himself considered TWO as one of his most profound works, and, in his own words — as a ‘film that packs quite a punch in its 10 minutes’.
