The association of war and moustaches
Throughout my research, I have seen a key theme in the idea that moustaches have been atypically associated with war and the stereotypical concept of masculinity. India is a key point in this idea, as in their culture clean shaven faces are deemed juvenile or weak. Additionally, in police forces and the military, moustaches are recognised as a symbol of authority. In order to feature these references to war and Indian culture, I decided to research some key historical wars to portray in my work.
The Bangladesh Liberation war
The Bangladesh Liberation war was a revolution and armed conflict sparked by the Bengali Nationalists during the 1971 Bangladesh genocide. The war involved the mass murder and genocide of Bengali civilians, students and religious minorities.
