Aroview: Although the third part in a longing running trilogy, this engrossing documentary stands on its own as an eye-opening chapter in the life of one working class Indonesian family.

Observing contemporary Indonesian life through inter-generational conflict, the role of religion, and the clash between tradition and modernity, the film also poses fascinating questions about the veracity of the medium, with the camera and crew at times encroaching on the subject's sense of normality, to the point that the line between reality and fiction becomes blurred.
