And the video descriptions:

"Vintage Hindi film songs are an indispensable part of South Asian popular culture. The onscreen actors who mimed through those songs, the singers, the composers, the songwriters – they are all household names, and many have attained legendary status. But who were those uncredited musicians who made up the orchestras that played on those songs and the background scores?

'The Human Factor' tells the fascinating story of the Lords, a Parsi family of pioneering musicians who collectively worked for over 60 years in Bombay’s film orchestras. But the story of the Lords is not theirs alone. It is also a crucial but obscure chapter in the history of Indian cinema."
