Bangla Surf Girls

An immersive story that takes us into the heart of a slum near Cox’s Bazar in Bangladesh, where we witness the transformation of young girls who join a local surf club and dare to dream of freedom and escape from a life of drudgery and abuse. The film captures the raw emotions, the family dynamics, and the complex pressures of poverty, juxtaposed against the freedom of the waves. A coming-of-age story in a developing country.
