Kanamachi - 2013 Exclusive
Unlike the domestic settings of its contemporaries, Kanamachi thrust its narrative into the murky world of undercover policing and familial betrayal.

“I heard a sound like ten thousand trains derailing,” says Rozina Begum, 45, a widow who lost her home in Mahipur. “But the wind wasn’t the worst part. It was the stillness just before. Fifteen minutes of silence. Then the kanamachi came.”
The storm surge, estimated at 7 to 8 feet, breached the embankments (bebandh) that were supposed to be reinforced after Cyclone Aila in 2009. Unlike Sidr, which flattened concrete, Kanamachi specialized in drowning the low ground. At 1:00 PM BDT on May 16, 2013,
While official government tallies listed 17 confirmed deaths and 200,000 displaced, an exclusive survey by our team of local volunteers suggests a darker reality. In remote chars (river islands) disappearing from maps, entire villages of bamboo and tin were erased.
In 2013, the world’s news cycle was dominated by the Boston Marathon bombing aftermath and the collapse of Rana Plaza (which had happened just three weeks prior, on April 24). Kanamachi was a footnote.
