Green, yellow, black. They are the blood in the veins
of Bangalore: the 450.000 rickshaws and their drivers. Knocked together
from bits and pieces, decorated, ready for the junk heap or carefully
maintained like antique cars, the vehicles are as charismatic as their
owners, who brave the monstrous traffic of this metropolis daringly,
sleepy, chattering or stoic, making sure the passanger's trip from A to B
will be full of memorable experiences.
Based on days of riding around in rickshaws and drawings made
locally, this animation captures the tough workaday life of a rickshaw
driver, seen through the eyes of a European visitor.
