In the capital of India to sit in the backseat of a three-wheeled vehicle is required to patience international buffet and a certain art of negotiation.
Once installed, Clément Desmousseaux runs to open the way along slums of Hindu temples, mosques and shops, on a road that turns into river during monsoon and a furnace international buffet in the spring, in a chaotic movement.
