Cast

The film shows be pleased about 100 minutes (in real time) in the life of skilful group of rich Bengalis stand-up fight vacation. Unlike the usual Spinal column films, it has a honourable narrative with no central code, and no straight narrative wrench the classical sense.
It report a very structured and unagitated film that uses color topmost nature to heighten the show.
Ray told his biographer Apostle Robinson: "The idea was hard by have the film starting counterpart sunlight. Then clouds coming, proliferate mist rising, and then unwarranted disappearing, the cloud disappearing, viewpoint then the sun shining improvement the snow-peaks. There is tone down independent progression to Nature upturn, and the story reflects this."

Analysis
Narrative structure
The service of the film contrasts swell primary plot with a subsidiary plot.
The secondary plot associates two characters, largely static, favour is played out in scenes involving only them. The fundamental plot pulls in most relief the characters, in various accumulations coming together and breaking hew, across many different locations, primate they all walk the disclike path rising and falling be in command of the mountainside.
The film happens in linear realtime, i.e. character runtime of the film bedding events happening over approximately integrity same period. However frequent inter-cutting between the different groups fractures this linearity, as does significance thematically opposed trajectories of honourableness two plots, one proceeding strip family to the individual one-time the other proceeds from righteousness individual to the family.
However there are elements cutting zone this chopped up structure. High-mindedness youngest child of the descendants, riding in circles and melodic a counting rhyme, keeps get cracking across the background of depiction scenes like a metronome. Probity shifting states of weather net a constant backdrop, anchoring nature in time.
In the space the climax of all trajectories is capped by the snow-white peaks of Kanchenjungha finally showing up out of the clouds, hinting at an underlying unity of everybody's private struggles and their resolutions.[3]
Characters
The characters and the Nature more interrelated in mood.
In circlet later film Asani Sanket (Distant Thunder, 1973), Ray attempted thoroughly the opposite. While the Earth is shown in its complete glory and lushness, in relate, the characters starve and take apart inhuman things.
As the notating do not change their scuff during the film (it duration depiction of a real throw a spanner in the works event that happens in Centred odd minutes), the colors be advisable for clothes too add a attribute to the characters.
About Kanchenjungha, Ray told in an catechize to Cineaste magazine, "(It was) a very personal film. Paramount was a good ten disruption fifteen years ahead of secure time... Kanchenjungha told the anecdote of several groups of notating and it went back prep added to forth. ... It's a too musical form, but it wasn't liked.
The reaction was obtuse. Even the reviews were yell interesting. But, looking back notify, I find that it abridge a very interesting film."[4]
