Tales from the Planet Kolkata

2021
40min

A personal film about a city that may only exist in a film or on TV; a film about various dreams about Calcutta.

Some images come from the North - Hollywood films and European television. The commentators are a local, traditional painter and an Afro-American video-artist from New York.
