Shot on 8mm film in 1962, this vintage home movie captures daily life in a poor riverside community in Calcutta, India. The footage shows residents on stilted wooden houses and small boats, engaged in everyday activities. A young boy in a white shirt and shorts stands near a boat, while others move about the waterways. The scenes depict a bustling, lived-in environment with laundry hanging and goods stored under thatched roofs. The film exhibits classic Super 8 grain, color fading, and natural lighting, offering an authentic glimpse into mid-century urban life along the river.
