Plot
The life of a community of fishermen in Bangladesh.
Sinekatalog’s take
Ritwik Ghatak's epic follows fishermen along Bangladesh's Titas river, as their community and the river itself decline. Lyrical, sprawling and tragic, it is a powerful and emotional portrait of vanishing lives.Sinekatalog’s own editorial review – not a user or critic quote.
