Roots of Resilience – The Mangrove Story follows a personal journey into the storm-beaten Sundarbans, where mangroves stand as ancient protectors against rising tides and intensifying cyclones.

Through the filmmaker’s reflections, shaped by his own experiences of storms in Assam, the film observes how these forests buffer surges, support biodiversity, and anchor coastal livelihoods, even as they face threats from climate change and unchecked development. Encounters with local communities reveal a resilience woven from both land and spirit, shaped by a deep, everyday relationship with water.

Blending voiceovers, storm-footage, and quiet moments of restoration work, the film draws parallels between coastal lives in the Sundarbans and the filmmaker’s own community. Roots of Resilience becomes a reminder that restoring mangroves is not only ecological work, but a way of re-learning how to live with nature’s rhythms.
