Director: Alan Crosland
Usually considered the first sound feature, this 1927 film is pretty much silent except for a few lines of dialogue and Al Jolson's songs. This movie tells the story of young Jakie Rabinowitz , the son of a cantor who wants him to follow in his footsteps, but the singer prefers secular music. He attempts to build a career as an entertainer, but his professional ambitions ultimately come into conflict with the demands of his home and heritage.

Director: Pankaj Butalia
Abandoned by their families to lives of penury, marked by the white veils which they wear, Bengali widows find solace and food in the ashrams of Vrindavan where they gather every morning and evening to sing religious songs. In this profoundly moving documentary on widowhood portrayed both as social institution and personal tradition, moments of astonishing sensuous beauty alternate with rhythms of anguish. In the best of the new ethnographic tradition, ‘Moksha’ de-centres the voices of authority and allows a plurality of voices to introduce contesting positions. Haunting in its evocation of grief and anger, the film transcends documentary and assumes its place in the great tradition of lamentation, the expression of the dark night of the human soul.

Director: Majid Majidi
Devoid of cynicism of post-modern dramas, this heart-warming film tells the story of nine year old Ali, who loses his sister Zahra’s newly repaired shoes. Frightened to tell their parents the truth, they devise a plan to share one pair of shoes between them.
Zahra wears them to school early morning, and then runs to meet Ali who wears them to his later classes. A very simple premise, its just the basis for what can be called as one of the most deceptively powerful films of recent times. Nominated for Oscars for Best Foreign Language Film cemented Iranian maestro Majid Majidi’s place in world cinema.

Director : Federico Fellini
Guido Anselmi, a director whose new project is collapsing around him, along with his life. One of the greatest films about film ever made, Federico Fellini’s 8½ (Otto e mezzo) turns one man’s artistic crisis into a grand epic of cinema. With utmost honesty spilled on screen, this is the perfect example of a film made on films. Acknowledged as a highly influential classic, the film frequently pops up in countless lists of best films ever made.

Director: Michael Powell and Emeric Pressburger
A group of Anglo-Catholic nuns open a school and a hospital in an isolated Himalayan valley. As they face a series of obstacles from the villagers and a hostile environment, tensions begin to grow. In Michael Powell's own view, this film (starring Deborah Kerr, Sabu, Jean Simmons, David Farrar and Flora Robson) was the most erotic film he ever made.

Director: Sergei M. Eisenstein
Regarded as one of the most significant works in the history of silent pictures, as well as possibly Eisenstein’s supreme work, Battleship Potemkin brought his theories of cinema art to the world in a powerful showcase; his emphasis on montage, his stress of intellectual contact, and his treatment of the mass instead of the individual as the protagonist. The film tells the story of the Russian ship Prince Potemkin where a horribly bloody mutiny took place during the 1905 uprising. Eisenstein signals this as the jumping off point for the revolution.

Director: Michael Powell and Emeric Pressburger
Arriving in Kent by train, a Land Girl (Sheila Sim), an American GI (Bob Johnson) and a British soldier (Dennis Price) attempt to discover the identity of a mysterious figure who pours glue into the hair of local girls who date soldiers. And in the process begin a 'pilgrimage' which will lead each of them to self-discovery. One of Powell and Pressburger's most personal film, it puzzled critics and audiences alike on its release and has since come to be seen as one of their finest creations.

Director : Leni Riefenstahl
Commissioned by Hitler, this is a documentary on 1934 Nazi party
convention in Nuremberg which glorified Hitler as the true leader who
will bring glory back to the nation and emphasized Germany as a great
power. One of the most infamous documentaries ever, it was hated by

However, it cemented Riefenstahl's status as a great filmmaker.
