Kolkata: City of Literature

This is a 15 minute film by Tin Can, a company dealing with performances and visual arts, which tries to showcase the true essence of the city.

This film was commissioned by the British Council and is set to be sent to Unesco, Paris, in the month of February. It would be accompanied by a bid document (the city intelligentsia would draft the content) that aims to set a claim for the coveted title of "City of Literature".

So, here's wishing that what we Kolkatans have known for long, the world recognises it by crowning it as the City of Literature.
