A Koyaanisqatsi-like perspective on progress and pessimism, on a domestic, global and cosmic scale.

The camera work was superlative. It felt like a genuine and intimate portrayal of life in Jakarta. Although it really made me question the line between being a mere fly-on-the-wall observer (and thus providing a more authentic picture), and being an active participant. Most (perhaps all) the scenes involved incredibly tragic abuse and ignorance, including abusive psychological pressure to obey a religion (either the grandmother's Christianity, or the father's Islam), a hell-like hair-raising male circumcision scene, physical assault against an innocent girl for being too close to a boy (I'm not sure how the camera-man didn't intervene), rampant political corruption, and general disregard for education (they prefer watching fighting fish on TV, rather than learning to use a gas stove or other more prudent studies). But such lifestyles are still the norm throughout the world, not just in Indonesia, so the film serves as important documentary evidence of the present state of our species.

It's a vivid picture of desperate people struggling to survive in a corrupt world, though formally rather too contrived for my taste.

Allan Hunter 16 Feb 2012

The culture of corruption infects everything and there is a sense of a country in transition captured in this engaging production.

One of the best films I've seen last year. Something reminded me months later, and I feel compelled to write about it again. A profound and amazing film - something beyond a documentary. Funny, poetic, brilliant and sad. Masterful cinematography and editing.
