Shelter of the Wings
1994, Bengali. Directed by Buddhadeb Dasgupta.
Lakhindar captures exotic birds from the Bengal forests, but his refusal to see them caged leads him to constantly set his catches free.

In her frustration, she begins an affair with the middleman who takes the birds to the market.
