Description
We are in Varanasi, also known as Benares, a city of two million inhabitants, built on the west bank of the Ganges River, in the Indian state of Uttar Pradesh, India.

The film opens with shots of a street with people coming and going. We see shops around as well as many "bike taxis" in the area. The lens focuses on the means of transport of that era as well as on the cows roaming freely on the road.

The film closes with the crowd of people and the flea market.
