Birangona: Women of War Golden Age, ABirangona: Women of War
Synopsis:
Moryom is a young woman who loves the taste of tamarind, the smell of her grandmother, and holding her husband's hand. It is 1971, the year that the war of independence tears through Bangladesh, and no part of the country is untouched. The Kalbosheki Storm is coming. In a small village, Moryom and her family await its arrival. Every day, they hide from soldiers in the pond behind their house, while across the country, women are disappearing from streets and homes. When the storm finally hits, it will tear away everything.

Synopsis:
Culturepot Global presents a semi-staged adaption of Tahmima Anam's award-winning novel A Golden Age, followed by Q&A with the author and the book's stage adaption team. This dramatic and innovative production brings alive the story of one family's experience of the Bangladesh War of Independence of 1971 - the turbulence of motherhood, love, passion, sacrifice and nationalism set against the background of a genocidal war. It gives insight into a critical turning point in the history of the region yet the story remains borderless and timeless.
