Shot on 8mm film in 1962, this vintage home movie captures a bustling street scene in Calcutta, India. A white cow stands prominently in the middle of the road as people in traditional clothing walk past, some carrying goods on their heads. The footage shows a young boy in a red jacket, a man holding a red cloth, and a woman balancing a colorful bundle. The scene unfolds in front of a colonial-style building with ornate windows, under bright sunlight. The film exhibits natural grain, slight color fading, and the authentic imperfections of a 1960s home movie, offering a candid glimpse into daily life in mid-century India.
