Sinopsis
Dari denting Jungga, alat musik tradisional Sumba, mengantar kita pada kisah perubahan di tanah yang kaya akan warisan budaya. Melalui sosok Ata Ratu, Rambu Ester, Pura Tanya, dan Haing, para pemain Jungga yang masih tersisa, film ini merekam benturan nilai lama dan baru dalam keseharian masyarakat Sumba.
Namun lebih dari sekadar soal sebuah alat musik yang nyaris terlupakan, film ini menelusuri bagaimana warisan budaya ditantang oleh zaman, dipertahankan oleh sebagian, dan perlahan ditinggalkan oleh generasi baru. Melalui potret para tokoh dari lintas generasi, latar keyakinan, dan lokasi geografis, baik yang masih memegang teguh kepercayaan leluhur maupun yang hidup dalam keseharian kota.
Film ini menggambarkan keberagaman kehidupan sosial, agama, dan kebudayaan di Sumba hari ini. Memotret upaya masyarakat Sumba merawat akar sambil menapaki masa depan.
