Pather Pachali by Satyajit Ray
Set in rural Bengal, the story follows the fragile, lyrical childhood of a boy named Apu and his older sister Durga as their poor family endures the small joys and crushing hardships of village life; through moments of play, festivals, monsoon rains, petty theft, illness and bereavement, the narrative unfolds as an intimate portrait of maternal care, a father's restless struggle for work, and the slow passage from innocence to hard-won resilience.
