On Mother's Head

Synopsis

An unvarnished depiction of how harsh country life is in Bali. This documentary does not show the white beaches from the tourist brochures, but the troubles and drudgery that usually remain hidden from outsiders. For these three central characters - besides Grandma and daughter, there is also granddaughter Ketut Fitry - life is primarily a question of survival.
