That's very hard to guess without seeing your code.

Since you have a binmode STDOUT, ':utf8;' somewhere, you don't need to encode the template's output anymore. Chances are that you don't need to encode anything at all.

The next debugging step is: check the data from the database. Do these strings have the UTF8 flag set? (remeber Devel::Peek.). You can also check the codepoints to see if the data arrived correctly.

Check the same thing for the tempalte's output.

Also make sure that you have warnings enabled, and check your error.log for warnings.
