These gorgeous stencil-coloured images of French India – present-day Puducherry – have a dreamlike quality. The arrival of a well-to-do European family, dutifully attended to by the locals, gives a semblance of narrative to what is largely a purely picturesque escapist experience - transporting Western viewers to an out-of-time 'exotic' netherworld. This was a French production but like many of the travel films so popular in early cinema it travelled widely itself – hence this version with English language titles.
