About the tour:
This tour is about tracing the localization of a place in the form of a real time movie. In the sense that this tour is exactly designed like a film. It is based out of a script which is a monologue about the city, in other words Kolkata narrating her own story as an individual. Begin your journey with the script reading session where you hear about her journey from past to present. After which we head out for the field trip. The areas that we cover have been selected as "sets" of this journey to enact the script storyboard. The people present in all these areas becomes the cast and the guide functions as the director of this real-time film. A notch above sightseeing and hyperlocal itineraries.
