Luminous Landscape Video Journal – Issue 15

On Location: Bangladesh

• Travel with Michael and the workshop participants on this photographically rich trip. This one hour segment illustrates the ‘biblical’ scenes featured in Michael’s Bangladesh – First Impressions book.

Experience the amazing scenes at the Sadarghat – Dhaka’s main ferry terminal, where fragile wooden water-taxis compete with huge ocean-going cargo ships and aggressive ferries & river barges.

• Journey down river to the magic and silent woodland of the Sunderban – home of the Bengal tiger and ‘mowglis’ – the mysterious honey-gatherers who risk all in the muddy forest.

• Above all, experience the amazing warmth and welcome of Bangladesh’s people – poor in material wealth but rich in strength and spirit.

*Please note that the ship-breaking yards of Chittagong were featured in LLVJ-12
