Remarks

The film reaches its climax with the crossing – a great feat of human endeavor in the teeth of hunger, with the elemental challenging them in the forms of dumb, grotesque animality and the river itself. The film also captures the painful drama which is followed by a respite with food, intimacy, a flash of a fear and the restoration of security.. Based on a short story written by Samaresh Bose, The Crossing makes a sensational take-off with a gruesome caste massacre, the master caste taking the revenge on the lower caste ghetto, burning it down in the process and shooting down several inhabitants in casual heartlessness..
