35 musical beginners went to compete in a prominent folk-competitions in Europe to preserve and promote angklung, an Indonesian heritage. They must succeed otherwise they will ruin the angklung’s reputation. This film is more than a story about Angklung – which by the way was recognised by UNESCO as world’s intangible cultural heritage in 2010.
