Experiencing Interruptions?

Happy Condolences

After learning of her mother's passing from her sister NILA (26), who was already at the location, LELA (21) is her way to the village for the funeral. A radio broadcast that discusses the possibility of Mount Toba erupting and its connection to the apocalypse accompanied her journey. Arriving at the house of worship for the funeral procession, Nila greeted Lela and invited her to come in. The moment Lela stepped into the room, something changed. An air of threat looms over her as the decorations and the gazes of the entire congregation were immediately focused on Lela.

Director Statement

Inspired by the shared experiences between the director and several other people who often feel uncomfortable attending church services as there is a sense of competition between congregations. Some believers often label themselves more faithful than others and would create barriers between themselves and those whose level of faith is, assumed, to be lower than theirs. As a result, congregants who are labeled as less-faithful sometimes do not find peace within the church but rather feel guilty and judged. However, not all churches are like this. Some churches that I have attended had a good brotherhood amongst everyone. Experiences regarding good brotherhood between congreagrations can be achieved through the love for God and love one another as humans are a reflection of God's form.
