Touqir Islam on 'Delupi', Anurag Kashyap’s support and telling stories through cinema

Highlights

  • Bangladeshi filmmaker Mohammad Touqir Islam tells Eastern Eye how floods and the 2024 student-led movement inspired his debut feature Delupi.
  • The film combines real stories from a flood-hit village with fictional characters to explore resilience, political change and social divisions.
  • Indian filmmaker Anurag Kashyap is helping present the film internationally ahead of its UK premiere.

When floods cut off a remote village in southern Bangladesh, its residents attempted to protect their homes by building a dam themselves. Their determination became the starting point for Delupi, the debut feature by filmmaker Mohammad Touqir Islam, which brings together environmental disaster, political upheaval and the lives of ordinary people.

The film began with two events that shaped Bangladesh in 2024. A student-led uprising led to the fall of Sheikh Hasina’s government, while severe floods affected several parts of the country. In an exclusive interview with Eastern Eye, Touqir explained how these events led him to Deluti Union in Paikgachha, Khulna, where he found a story of people relying on one another when outside help failed to arrive.
