Video: A journey to Chaliyam, Beypore and Kozhikode (March 2022)

Impressions of the historical interplay of religious infrastructures, local geographies and trade networks in Chaliyam, Beypore and Kozhikode on the Malabar coast in India. The footage was filmed in March 2022 by Susanne Rau from Erfurt University as she travelled the Malabar coast for archival research and a series of co-operation events with Farook College, Kozhikode. The research trip was undertaken in the context of the Humanities Centre for Advanced Studies “Religion and Urbanity: Reciprocal Formations” and funded by the German Research Foundation (FOR 2779). The film was edited by our student assisstant Lukas Severin Damm.
