Shape of the Moon

Rumidjah, a 62-year-old widow, lives in Jakarta/Indonesia with her son Bakti and her 11-year-old granddaughter Tari. Since the fall of dictator Suharto seven years ago, she has witnessed the country passing through a tumultuous period of socio-political chaos. Director Leonard Retel Helmrich again visits Indonesia through three generations of the Sjamsuddin family. In this way the film continually connects small issues with large ones.
