Monpura (2009).

Just rewatched one of the underrated classics of Bangladesh. A beautiful story about, when a landlord's son commits a murder, his servant takes the blame and gets marooned to the island Monpura where he falls in love with the local fisherman's daughter. Amazing story, screenplay, direction by Giasuddin Selim. Fabulous songs and soundtrack. A story about love, pain and purity. Wonderful performance by Chanchal Chowdhury, Farhana Mili, Fazlur Rahman Babu etc. One of my favorite movies from childhood.
