Ray's critique of blind religious faith. In late nineteenth century rural India after his son leaves to finish his studies in the city, leaving his young wife behind, a feudal landlord has a vision and is seized by the notion that his daughter in law is an incarnation of the 'Mother Goddess'. Soon he also has his neighbours believing the delusion.
