Shot on 8mm film in 1962, this vintage home movie captures daily life along the Ganges River in Calcutta, India. The footage shows numerous people bathing and washing clothes on the historic ghats, with traditional stone steps leading down to the water. Locals in traditional attire go about their routines under a bright sun, with laundry hanging from balconies and umbrellas providing shade. The film exhibits natural grain, slight color fading, and authentic 1960s Super 8 aesthetic, offering a candid glimpse into everyday rituals and community life in mid-century India.
