Shot on 8mm film in 1962, this vintage home movie captures a flooded riverside village in Calcutta, India. Wooden stilt houses rise above murky water, with laundry hanging from lines and a man in a sarong washing near his home. The footage shows daily life during a flood, with water reaching the lower levels of homes and people adapting to the inundated environment. The film exhibits natural grain, slight color fading, and the authentic look of a personal 1960s home movie, offering a rare glimpse into historical living conditions in a South Asian river community.
