Shot on 8mm film in 1962, this vintage home movie captures a group of people traveling by boat in Calcutta, India. A monk in saffron robes sits calmly at the front of the wooden boat, while passengers in casual attire enjoy the ride. A boatman in a wide-brimmed hat paddles steadily, navigating the calm water. The footage shows gentle movement and natural light, with visible film grain and scratches that enhance its authentic, nostalgic quality. The scene evokes a sense of peaceful travel and cultural observation from mid-century India.
