Deshantori, meaning "The Migrant" is a Bangladeshi film released in January 2007 that has won wide acclaim both in Bangladesh and abroad. Although set in Bangladesh, Deshantori transcends all barriers of geography and audience—with wide appeal to international viewers of all backgrounds and circumstances. Deshantori brings to life the circumstances in developing nations that forces young people towards illegal migration. It develops around the re-construction of a shockingly painful journey of 26 young Bangladeshis who tried to migrate to Spain illegally through the Sahara Desert and the Mediterranean Sea (in which they were forced to resort to cannibalism to stay alive). The film is thought-provoking—exploring how lack of social justice and economic opportunities can force people to take drastic measures, and then taking it a step further to highlight the inherent resilience of our youth in the face of grave situations. Deshantori is symbolic of the ambition, strength, resilience and hope that we all aspire towards. Concept and Produced by: Mridul Chowdhury; Directed by: Sujan Mahmud and Mridul Chowdhury
