TITASH EKTI NADIR NAAM (A RIVER CALLED TITASH)
Synopsis
Based on the acclaimed novel by Advaita Malla Barman, and shot in Ghatak's childhood home of East Bengal shortly after the independence of Bangladesh, the film captures the songs, speech, rituals, and rhythms of a once self-sufficient community and culture swept away by natural catastrophes, modernisation, and political conflict.Credits
