If God would come down to earth and try to earn a living in Bombay, most probably he would very soon become successful as a voice over artiste, lending his voice to thousands of hindi movies and even more documentaries and public service films in India.
A melo-dramatic docu-drama with voice-over in stop-motion and longtime-exposure.
The film was shot on 16mm stock, using a Krasnogorsk-3 camera, which was modified to Super 16 mm gauge. Most of the footage was shot with a 2 minute long time exposure for each frame. To be able to combine the stop motion technique with long exposure times, the camera was triggered by an interface built by Dirk Göken. A short video of this device you can watch here:
