In the karst landscapes of Gunung Sewu (the thousand mountains), where limestone hills meet the southern sea of Java, a way of life unfolds in close relation to the land, where gestures, rituals, and songs sustain a shared rhythm of existence, shaped by long-standing cosmological understandings.

Review by Andie Kay:

Writer/Director Ira Setiawati creates a love letter to the Gunung Sewu (aka The Thousand Mountains). This beautiful landscape on Karst Global Geopark is protected by the United Nations. The local culture, traditions, ceremonies and celebrations that are captured show how man and nature can live in harmony.

The cinematography from Bagus Wongso is incredibly breathtaking and the rock colors inside the sacred caves were really mesmerizing. Even some of the still photography showing how to access the caves was incredible. Getting the opportunity to listen to the speakers; Ribut Subranto, Irianto, and Guntoyo was interesting and educational.

Marvelous job editing this film to give the viewer a complete understanding of the Gunung Sewu and how vast and beautiful it is.
