Experiences of the International Film Market: A Conversation with Bangladeshi Filmmakers

On 3 September 2026, the Department of Television, Film and Photography, University of Dhaka, and Dhaka DocLab, with the support of TFP Film Club, organized an experience-sharing session on navigating international film markets, building professional networks, and creating opportunities for Bangladeshi film projects.

The session brought together filmmakers who recently participated in the industry programmes of Marché du Film – Festival de Cannes and Sheffield DocFest.

Tareq Ahmed, Team Lead of the Bangladesh delegation at Sheffield DocFest, opened the discussion with an introduction to the international film market, its ecosystem, professional networks, and the opportunities it can offer filmmakers. This was followed by first-hand reflections and experiences from Kazi Arefin Ahmed, who participated in both delegations, and Citto Aanondi, who represented Bangladesh at Marché du Film. Tanim Yousuf also joined the conversation, contributing to the discussion on the realities and possibilities of engaging with the international film industry.

The discussion was moderated by Tareq Ahmed, while Saiyeed Shahjada Al Kareem, Chair of the Department, coordinated the session, beginning with a welcome note and introduction of the guests and facilitating the subsequent Q&A session.

The session drew a houseful audience, with students, early-career filmmakers, and mid-career practitioners joining the conversation. The Q&A provided an engaging space to discuss practical questions around film markets, networking, pitching projects, international collaboration, and how filmmakers can build meaningful professional connections beyond Bangladesh.

The enthusiastic participation and exchange of ideas reflected a growing interest among Bangladesh’s emerging and established filmmakers in understanding and engaging with the global film industry.

The Department of Television, Film and Photography, University of Dhaka, thanks Dhaka DocLab for joining us in organizing this enriching programme. We look forward to continuing to create spaces for dialogue, exchange, and meaningful connections between Bangladeshi filmmakers and the wider international film community.

Congratulations, TFP 8th Batch! 🎓

Today (03 September 2026) marks a significant milestone in the journey of the 8th Batch of the Department of Television, Film and Photography, University of Dhaka.

With the publication of their final semester results, they have successfully completed their BSS (Honours) programme.

Four years ago, they walked into this department as freshers, with questions, uncertainties, dreams, and perhaps little idea of where this journey would take them. Since then, they have learned to hold a camera, shape a frame, listen to a story, understand an image, create with sound and light, and, most importantly, to look at the world with greater curiosity and imagination.

Beyond classrooms, studios, assignments, productions, deadlines, and examinations, they have also learned something less visible: how to see, how to feel, how to question, and how to tell stories about the world and about themselves.

Along the way came long days and longer nights, moments of excitement and frustration, laughter and disagreements, friendships and memories. Through all these ordinary and extraordinary moments, a batch became a community, and young learners became storytellers, thinkers, and practitioners.

Today, one important chapter of that journey comes to a close.

But this is not a farewell.

For many, the journey with the department will continue into new academic and professional chapters. Whether they remain within these familiar classrooms and corridors or carry their learning into new places, the years spent here will remain an enduring part of who they are and what they create.

Dear 8th Batch,

You entered this department with dreams yet to take shape.
Today, you stand at the threshold of everything those dreams may become.

There is still so much to learn, so much to discover, and so many stories waiting to be told.

The Department of Television, Film and Photography is proud of what you have accomplished and warmly congratulates each and every member of the 8th Batch.

May you continue to see deeply, think boldly, create fearlessly, and tell stories that matter.

And wherever the next chapter takes you, may you always remember the place where you learned to see the world through a different frame.

Congratulations, TFP 8th Batch.
This is not the end of your story,
only the beginning of another chapter.

With warmest wishes,
Department of Television, Film and Photography
University of Dhaka

N.B. While the photograph may not include everyone, every member of this journey is equally remembered, celebrated, and cherished.
