Shot on 8mm film in 1962, this vintage home movie captures a sun-drenched view of Calcutta, India, with its historic ghats and traditional architecture lining the riverbank. The footage shows people moving along the steps and small boats on the water, all rendered in the warm, faded colors and visible grain of classic Super 8 film. The scene evokes a sense of daily life and cultural richness in mid-century India, with a mix of historic temples and modern buildings under a hazy sky.
