In Bogura's char lands along the Jamuna River,hundreds of women are elderly spend 5 hours in six days sorting and sun-drying chilies for minimal wages. Behind these vivid red fields lies a powerful story of endurance and resilience, revealing the unseen contribution of older women who sustain this fragile rural economy.
