Handmade in Bangladesh(2020)

Handmade in Bangladesh Synopsis

In short episodes Handmade in Bangladesh tells the stories of average working people who live in a rich cultural heritage of artisan handicraft and creativity. They invent many ways of recycling in order to make a living out of basically nothing, looking at it from the perspective of the affluent West, in the sense that “One man’s trash is another man’s treasure.” In this way Handmade in Bangladesh offers an alternative point of view to the often one-sided, negative media image of this young, independent country.

Handmade in Bangladesh (2020) is a documentary film directed by Liz Bachhuber, released on January 20, 2020 with a runtime of 1h 17m. It stars Mohammad Alamgir, Sharfaraz Ahmed, Nazimuddin Bepari and Selina Khatun.
