A Chronicle of the Lost

Based on the testimonies of former migrant workers, A Chronicle of the Lost retraces the journey of one of them, embodied by a fictional character wandering through the now-abandoned jute mills of Calcutta. The imaginary letters he sends to his wife, who remained in their village, weave a poignant elegy to a community destroyed by the rise of capitalism.
