I’ve always loved cameras. Since childhood, I’ve collected dozens of them digital and analog, crop sensors and full frames, 35mm, 110mm, 120mm, you name it.
While I was in Prague, I stumbled upon a YASHICA 20XL at an auction and got it for just €30. I decided to document my last month in Prague on film, Super 8, one roll, 3 minutes of film, one month of memories.
After shooting, I faced my first real film challenge with developing. The stock I used was Eastman Kodak Company 50D, which needs an ECN-2 process, and no lab in Prague handled that. So, I brought the roll back to India, only to find no one here processed ECN-2 either.
Finally, with help from a friend, I sent it all the way to Cinegrell in Berlin, and after weeks of waiting, I finally got it developed.
What started as a small experiment turned into a deeply nostalgic project and a reminder of how much I enjoy working with film.
