Shot on 8mm film in 1962, this vintage home movie captures a bustling floating market in Calcutta, India. Small wooden boats navigate narrow waterways, laden with fresh produce like coconuts and vegetables. Vendors in traditional conical hats and simple clothing sell goods from their vessels alongside stilted market stalls. The scene is bathed in the warm, slightly faded colors of aged film, with visible grain and soft focus enhancing its nostalgic, archival quality. This authentic slice of daily life offers a rare glimpse into mid-century Indian commerce and culture.
