Muktir Kotha

Muktir Kotha follows a group of young men and women began traversing the far corner of Bangladesh projectionists from 1996 to 1999, showing Muktir Gaan, a documentary on the 1971 Bangladesh Liberation War.

The film screenings prompted the villagers to share their own stories of wartime suffering and resistance.

Through these interactions with village audiences, the young projectionist came to 'relearn' the wider history of the Liberation War, and the continuing struggle of ordinary people for a more just and democratic society.

The film is an archive of how the ordinary people fell victim to atrocities of the war.
