Ekti Nadir Naam (English: The Name of a River) is a 2003 documentary-style film directed by Anup Singh, exploring the life and work of the great Indian filmmaker Ritwik Ghatak and is set in the partition of Bengal in 1947.[1]

The film won the Silver Dhow Prize at the 5th Zanzibar International Film Festival.[2]

Overview

The Name of a River is Anup Singh's debut work[3] and focuses on a love story between a man and a woman crossing the river between Bangladesh and India - playing the roles of refugees, divine beings and literary and cinematic characters - to understand the mysteries of the events that led to the massacre of half a million people and forced ten million people to migrate across the newly established borders. Covering a huge area of visual, aural and intellectual ground within its 90 minutes, this exquisite film presents its audience with a dreamlike odyssey through a history, a life and a work that we, the viewers, encounter in the shape of stunning landscapes and music, lovers and gods, myths and memories, literature and cinema.[4]

Filming

The film was shot in India and Bangladesh.
