From a friend from Cooke Town ....Oh wow !! Beautiful da. Eda the tailor on wheels used to come to cooke town.. he is the one who did patchwork on my denim jacket. Just realized from this he passed away 😔
A wonderful film. Thanks so much for sharing, it was most interesting to learn about these crafts-people. They are doing an excellent job keeping clothes suitable for use. Here in the West people are more likely to throw things away and buy new ones. The waste is terrible.
Response from the Viewer...Excellent film! Really impressed with the tailor on wheels though really sad to know that he passed away! Loved the last lines too.. it’s so heartbreaking to see how important these skills still are in our society and yet it is not appreciated at all. Soon the scenario here will be like in the UK where for every alteration you either pay 50 pounds or you get three new items in that cost. I would send my son’s school trousers (which would get shorter in just 3 months of buying) for alteration to my friends in Porto. ( not through courier of course!! ) Thanks for sharing and good luck!
A very well made film, Purna! I remember we had a tailor who would come home and do alteration, what neat and skilled finish too! There was a tailor calling out recently during the lockdown, I hope he has gone back to his nook and taking care of this essential need of readapting and customizing of our daily and fashion wear.
What a beautiful and relevant film on a sustainable practice in its true sense! It brings to the fore a livelihood means of great value. It also touches upon various challenges associated with small-scale repair industry including lack of resources, low-income, losing clientele, threats of infrastructure development, issues around gender and safety, all in just 7 minutes. Kudos to the whole team!
Awesome short film, thank you Himadri and Purna for bringing out the nuances of this urban livelihood which is almost on the verge of extinction..the word tailor-made is interesting, as it can also be used for our cities as most of it is self made and not really designed..
@@hpviktori Thank you for sharing it! As I've said to Himadri, it was a jump back when I was studying urbanism. Infrastructural spaces are indeed places for important urban activities.
It’s a beautiful film Hemadri & Purna! Thank you for bringing these layers of society to everyone’s attention. The skilled people like these tailors were very common in past, fast getting lost in today’s metropolises. Good to see someone is documenting this. Hope to see more videos like 👍🏼
Wonderfully portrayed ! This is a subject very dear to my heart . Wish people realised the importance of mending and saved mindless spending on clothes ! Best wishes to the team ! Looking forward to more projects like this .
Interesting and very depressing. So there's no government organization or NGO helping them out. At least they are managing somehow, and providing a valuable service.
Well you will be surprised to know that tribe of alteration tailors is growing because of consumerism. People bring loads of clothes to them for alteration works.
Many Congrats Himadri

Wow.... U ppl amaze me..... Creativity ....
When is the last time you saw a sewing machine being used by someone?
Very poignant and relevant in all the sustainability talks. Thank you for this effort.
Good film Purna & Hemadri !
Spreads awareness about so many things livelihoods, repair culture, environment, and promotes empathy.
Good job 👍🏼

Thanks Bishal, yes the challenge was to communicate such range of issues. But films are such a versatile medium...

Terrific little film!
Yes this 6 min format is terrific to explore.
Wonderful film Himadri & Purna! Sometimes the stories of these people who provide such valuable services are lost in the noise of our cities
Very well said
Insightful stories, indeed. It's interesting how the urban space is never completely neutral.
Thanks for watching it.

Yes we definitely would like to bring more such stories. Their day to day ingenuity is marvellous and inspiring.

Where is the link to vote? Very insightful and relevant, thanks for the effort and what a film!
Just below the title there is a thumbs up sign. Do consider liking it and give this film from Bangalore a chance. Thanks for watching it.

Throws light on a group fast losing relevance in the age of readymade clothes and online shopping .
