The ultimate communal feast for birthdays, marriages, religious celebrations, and death anniversaries in Chittagong, Bangladesh, is a Mezban, locally known as a Mejjan. The beef-centric meal, which is eaten by hand, is always free and open to the public. Most of the dishes served at a Mezban can be traced back to the 16th-century Mughal Empire, which first brought the recipes to the region. We visited Chittagong to see how a Mezban is prepared for 40,000 people.
About 20 years ago, Bangladesh became the first nation on Earth to ban single-use plastic bags. Since then, plastic pollution has actually gotten worse. In an effort to find a biodegradable replacement, the government turned to jute, a cash crop that's grown here for centuries. Can one scientist bring more of this "golden fiber" to a country drowning in plastic?
Bulbul has just married and moved into a small village in northeast Bangladesh, a region battered year after year by severe flooding. During the rainy season, water routinely invades homes, wipes out crops, and turns daily life into a struggle for survival. For families like Bulbul’s, rebuilding after each monsoon has become an exhausting cycle. A group of architects from Dhaka is working with rural communities to break that cycle. Through hands-on workshops, they teach villagers how to build simple, flood-resistant tiny houses called "khudi baris" that safeguard families and food supplies when waters rise. As Bulbul prepares to build one of these homes, the film follows his transition into married life and a community learning to adapt and endure in the face of climate extremes.
