CALCUTTA INDIA-1962: A man in a dark shirt and light-colored trousers stands barefoot on a wooden boat, using a long pole to push off from a flooded riverside. The scene captures daily life in a waterlogged settlement, with traditional stilt houses and corrugated metal roofs visible in the background. The footage, shot on 8mm film, shows a person navigating the murky water, likely transporting goods or moving between homes. The final frame reveals another individual in a conical hat working near a bridge, highlighting the community's reliance on waterways. The warm, faded colors and film grain evoke a nostalgic, authentic slice of 1960s Indian life.
