Oka Oori Katha (English title: The Marginal Ones; Telugu: ఒక ఊరి కథ) is a 1977 Indian Telugu-language drama film directed by Mrinal Sen.[1] The Pan-Indian film is based on the 1936 Munshi Premchand story Kafan (The Burial Shroud).[2]
The Marginal Ones was one of the Indian entries at the 4th Hong Kong International Film Festival.[3] It was featured in the Karlovy Vary International Film Festival, Carthage Film Festival,[4] and the Indian Panorama section of the 7th IFFI.[5]
It won the "Special Jury Prize (Karlovy Vary IFF)";[6][7] and the Best Feature Film in Telugu at the 25th National Film Awards, "for successfully transforming Premchand's story "Kafan" into a scathing commentary on rural destitution and social injustice; for projecting through powerful performances of its leading characters, the degradation and brutalisation of human beings, for its sincere commitment to the cause of the downtrodden; for its fervent impassioned appeal to the conscience of humanity" as cited by the Jury.[6]
