Bangkok streets early 1960's. Archive film 93971

Bangkok, Thailand, Asia. View of corrugated iron rooftops, all packed closely together on the outskirts of a city. A small blue vehicle drives along the road. Views of the poor housing in a residential area. A colourful display of cut flowers is outside a florist's shop. Close ups of the blooms and garlands. People gather in a market. Three children look at the camera. A man wearing a pointed straw hat walks along carrying food in baskets suspended from a stick which he holds over his shoulder. At a road junction traffic turns in while cars wait at traffic lights on the other side. Another trader carries cleverly balanced brooms and brushes suspended from his shoulder stick and walks along the road. Pedestrians walk along the pavement as traffic passes. A man cycles along a quiet residential street. Food traders sit on the floor surrounded by baskets containing their wares. A small boy sits next to a stack of eggs looking up at camera. People walk past a flower shop with garlands hanging outside it. Close up of the blooms and the flowers arranged in baskets. A woman spoons some sort of batter out of a metal container into hot oil, making some sort of dumplings or similar. Further shots of traders sitting in the market amongst their baskets. A boy sits on a stool of wood and eats rise from an orange bowl with a spoon. A row of houses sit along the waterside. Pedestrians walk in front of shops with white fabric hanging from above the windows. A group of children stand around wooden stools and a table which are outside on the street and smile at the camera. They are preparing some sort of food. In a run down shanty town children walk past dilapidated houses. Ducks and chickens peck about in dirty puddles. A rickety wooden bridge leads across a stream to a house. Further street shots with children.
