An exploration of transitions across borders.
Since independence, the middle class in Bangladesh has prospered, and many have climbed the social ladder. But except for a very few rags-to-riches stories, the poor have been well and truly entrenched in poverty. They see little hope of ever being able to claw their way out of it, except perhaps through the promise of distant lands. While the migrant worker has brought in billions of Taka to Bangladesh, they are still seen as second class citizens, internationally and within their own nation. Migrantsoul is an attempt to understand the dreams and the realities of the migrant people.
