Synopsis
Bambang Warih Koesoema is a candidate for the DPD in Jakarta. The former Golkar man is already an experienced politician, having been a member of the DPR until his recall in 1995. But this time he will be campaigning on his own, recruiting volunteers and devising his campaign strategy. The filmmakers follow Bambang throughout the campaign. They capture his high points - talking to ordinary people in slums and kampungs - and the low points - his exhaustion and frustration as the campaign proceeds. The film also tackles the issue of the DPD itself. How will this new institution work? And can it really have an impact on how politics is conducted in Indonesia? Critics interviewed in the film suggest that while the initial idea behind the DPD was good, the reality will prove to be disappointing. Will Bambang Warih Koesoema dream go the same way?
