A new documentary titled ‘Shrabon Bidroho’ has been released to preserve the memory and spirit of last year’s July Uprising-a mass student-led movement that reshaped Bangladesh’s political
consciousness, said a press release.
Premiered Monday evening at the National Museum’s main auditorium in Shahbagh, Dhaka, the 30-minute film is produced by the Department of Films and Publications under the Ministry of Information and Broadcasting.
It features rare archival footage, still photographs, and street graffiti from the uprising, many of which had remained unseen until now. The documentary chronicles the background, timeline, and emotional arc of the movement, interweaving accounts from student leaders, families of the deceased and prominent public figures.
Viewers are taken through a visceral retelling of events that unfolded on the streets-highlighting both the courage of protestors and the brutality of state forces. The film’s release comes just a year after the uprising, which saw thousands of students and citizens mobilise against what many described as a collapsing democratic order.
From protest chants to artistic expressions on city walls, the uprising left a lasting mark on the country’s cultural and political fabric.
