Director Goutam Ghosh has said that creative people like film makers and photographers are helpless as their voices are never heard by the political powers.
But the film makers and photographers will keep chronicling events and speak against atrocities against humanity, said Ghosh inaugurating an exhibition on Rohingya refugees by Bangladesh photographers Moinul Alam and Asma Beethe.
"Somewhere, somehow the plight of Rohingyas refugees are in no way different from the plight of the 1947 Parition victims. The tale of refugees has remained the same for ages," the ace cine director said on Monday.
Ghosh, the director of Bengali film 'Sankhachil' themed on Partition and the inner connect between people across borders, said big political powers have always been busy in creating borders and displacing people in different corners of world. "The political powers are always practising their own game of divide and rule."
