The Story of a dead horse.
Ghoramara is the name of an Island, in bengalí language Ghoramara minds "A dead horse".
A long time ago there were Bengali tigers on the island, they say that one of them killed the horse of a British settler and that it is the discovery of the animal's dead body what gave the place its name.
In only four decades Ghoramara has lost more than 75 percent of its territory. Erosion and sea rising due to climate change are responsible for such a loss. While expert looks for scientific explanations, the island's five thousand inhabitants strive to protect what is left and get prepared for the worst. It is a race against time with little tools and expertise, done more with the heart than with preparedness in an effort to save their way of life in one of the world's ecosystems most vulnerable to climate change. A struggle that will never be probably mentioned in any UN climate change summit, although recent reports warn that the island is likely to disappear within the next six to eight years.
