Summary: Dedicated to preserving the typographic practice of street painters around India. These painters, with the advent of local DTP- Desktop Publishers shops, are rapidly going out of business with many businesses and shops switching to the quicker, cheaper but uglier vinyl. Many painters have given up their practice altogether. The film involves documenting the typefaces of road side painters across India, digitizing it and archiving it for future generations.
