The Other Face of Bangladesh

Its inhabitants affectionately call it "Sonar Bangla" - Golden Bengal. But behind the news of floods and poverty, the true face of Bangladesh remains hidden: its rich culture, amiable people, and unique nature. Thus, the documentary takes a trip through a largely unknown country - and shows the other face of a region between misery and boom: the Bengali, their culture and lives beyond the headlines. A people with a turbulent history under shifting sovereignties, which has only been living in its own state for 40 years.
