Is it possible for humans to forget their native language? Is it possible for them to abandon their cultural identity?

In the case of the Saura people, a small ethnic community living in  Moulvibazar, Bangladesh, the same phenomenon is happening over time.

Their language, "Saura", is on the verge of extinction. The Saura ethnic group's cultural traditions have also been almost lost.

On this International Mother Language Day, watch the story of the dying Saura language on Star Special.
