A family in Andhra / produced by James Beveridge

Item consists of a documentary film. “Indian life is the interplay between village and city. Villagers come into the city for work, become city dwellers and eventually lose their affiliations with country ways. Many villagers are supported by the rupees sent back by the sons who have left for work in city industries. City workers often return to the villages for planting and harvest, especially during festival time.

In a village in the Andhra state in eastern India along the Bay of Bengal, the sons return to their father's tobacco farm for the harvest, curing and sale of tobacco. Celebrations for the reunited of all the generations follow a description of the history and culture of the area.”
