The Flute and the Arrow is a 1957 drama, documentary, and adventure film directed by Arne Sucksdorff. This ethnographic feature provides a unique glimpse into the life and rituals of the Muria people in the Bastar jungle of central India.
The Flute and the Arrow has had a somewhat obscure release history, often surfacing in niche festival circuits rather than mainstream channels, which adds to its allure among collectors.
