Shot on 8mm film in 1962, this vintage home movie captures the iconic Howrah Bridge in Calcutta, India. The footage shows the massive steel truss structure spanning a wide river, with small boats and river traffic visible below. The grainy, slightly faded color and film edge borders give it an authentic retro feel. The camera moves from a wide view of the bridge and river to a closer look at the intricate lattice work of the steel framework. This archival clip offers a nostalgic glimpse of mid-century Calcutta life and engineering.
