Synopsis
Sinopsis
A girl journeys through Indonesia’s majestic landscapes and industrial wounds — sunken houses, poisoned rivers, forgotten fields. Guided by a voice of poetry, she moves between memory and loss, tracing the echoes of land, women, and ancestry. Through fragments of destruction and quiet resilience, the film becomes a meditation on return — not to a home, but to an origin we’ve abandoned.
