B-Roll Working the Scales, Alipur Fish Dock Bangladesh

by | B-Roll Bangladesh

A fully loaded basket can weigh as much as 45 kg (100lbs). These agile workers walk a wobbly dock up the ramp to the fish processing area. And yet, they still find a way to smile and joke while working.

Rain or extreme heat, for as long as it takes to transport the Bay of Bengali catch and ‘head-balm’ their loads to the auctioneer ice packager, then back up to the boat again.

Daniel~Ibrahim, as-salamu alayku

Ibrahim and the salty, weathered Muslim men who work in his rural village of Alipur live a simple, harsh, yet spiritually connected life.

In the West, we have yet to appreciate how much sweat and tears go into catching and bringing fish to our markets. 

One of Ibrahim’s jobs is unloading, sorting, counting and transporting fish baskets from the large wooden boats in his village of Alipur in the district of Patuakhali, Barishal Division in Bangladesh.

There’s so much excellent raw content here!

I spent a few days capturing photos and shooting videos on my iPhone. I plan to compile a montage of the best clips using Final Cut Pro. But for now, enjoy the essence of a Bangladeshi fishing village.

I can’t wait to show you the video we captured on our Drone — a story for another time.
