Set before Bangladesh became an independent country, when it was still part of Pakistan, “Jaago Bahey” focuses on the issues Bangladeshian people faced at the time, through three episodes, which might as well be short movies, that highlight three different aspects.
“Jaago Bahey” is streaming on Chorki.com
The first episode is titled “Shobder Khowab” and deals with the issue of the language, by focusing on the working environment of an office in an imports-exports company. The middle-aged employees speak and write in Bengali, but their boss insists that all transactions in the office must take place in Urdu. The protagonist has real trouble learning the new language, even hiding his struggle from his wife, and the bullying ways of his boss do not help at all. Eventually, however, and as the employees get fired one by one, another agenda is revealed.
