Ruhul Amin
Ruhul : Let me simply explain my understanding of this magical and most powerful medium. Filmmaking is a complex art form. To become a filmmaker it requires a burning desire and a passion to go through an intensive learning process. Initially it doesn’t provide you any security of livelihood. It doesn’t bring instant name and fame. One has to begin his or her journey with an understanding of all that and be prepared to face any daunting challenge.
Cinema is Painting, cinema is music, cinema is poetry, cinema is people, and cinema is our culture. Cinema touches everything is to do with our existence and us. Cinema is just not to do with camera, sound and light. Cinema is an art form. It tells story, story of people.It requires a discipline, commitment and love. You have to have tremendous love for that art and craft. And for that love you have to be prepared to climb Himalaya. Well, this may sound intimidating, but not to worry. Every one of us is born with creative instinct. If we are given an opportunity or grow up in around right kind of cultural environment, we are bound to be influenced by it. So far filmmaking has been confined with the privileged class. Very recently with the emergence of video technology, has allowed accessibility to the wider world.

Romuz - What exactly involves becoming a filmmaker?
They are split between present, past, East and West. I feel they have to confront many more storms before they appreciate and become proud of their glorious cultural heritage. Then inventively they will run everywhere with the camera in search of their lost treasure.
Romuz - What inspired you to become a filmmaker and how did you manage to enter into the industry?
Ruhul : I was extremely fortunate. It is partly to do with my background where I’m from. I grew up in one of the most beautiful part of Bangladesh. It is a small town in North East of Bangladesh, surrounded by lash green hills and beautiful tea gardens reflect a stunning beauty of nature. Culturally the place was very vibrant with wonderful minority communities such as, Manipuri, Nepali and the trivial people of the tea gardens who kept the landscape alive with their music and colourful festivals. My parents always enjoyed watching old Bengali films. So, I grew up watching films and overwhelmed by their passionate discussion.
From my early childhood I became fascinated by films and infect at the age of seven.I decided to become a filmmaker and wanted to capture the beautiful life of those beautiful people. One day I discovered the power of the magical lamp, I mean the projector throwing waves of light and creating images on the screen. That was a magical moment for me.
I became obsessed to learn and became a magician of cinema. I would say I have a natural instinct towards creatively. The seed of the film was sown in an early age. I became attracted and deeply fell in love with that magic. When I came to England in the begging of 80s my search continued to learn filmmaking. While I was at school I joined a local film workshop and I made my first short film. Later I joined film industry as an assistant. Within short time I made my first documentary “FLAMAE IN MY HEART” for
