She is a teacher. She is a mother to young artists, a mother to activists of social and cultural movements.

The Batujaya Temple in Karawang revolutionized the notion that terracotta buildings from the Hindu-Buddhist period came from a younger period than andesite. Sites stretching from prehistoric times to the 10th century are evidence of the archipelago's cosmopolitanism since the early century AD based on the Citarum River.

This film is a poem for ancient terracotta, soil, archaeologists and the citizens of Batujaya today.
