The Battle of Kushtia

The Battle of Kushtia is a film about the valor and sacrifice of the people of Bangladesh. Focused on Kushtia (a city of southwestern Bangladesh), it relates the coalescing of a people’s resistance movement and how its victory, albeit short lived, inspired a whole nation.

This documentary features exclusive footage and interviews with Kushtia’s freedom fighters. It also depicts the brutality and savagery of a military regime which brought genocide and despair to the people of Bangladesh.
