Indonesia’s rainforests are vanishing at an alarming rate, uprooting thousands of orangutans from the familiar sights, scents, and warmth of an Uma (home). Few are fortunate enough to have the chance to escape their alien surroundings and get back to Uma, though the journey may cost a lifetime, as one must rediscover their true self. The journey of an orangutan back to Uma unfolds across 2,000 frames, tracing through urban spaces, carrying footprints from the forest.

What seems like such a simple story of survival is so much more than that—it’s a story of family, and of war, and of destruction. It’s painful to watch, but not in a bad way. It makes its audience reflect on their own actions, and in how they are complicit in the sufferings of others as the adults in this film are. Grave of the Fireflies does not hold back from being heartbreaking, and it shouldn’t. It tells a message that needs to be heard decades after the war, and a story that cannot be forgotten by history.
