Overview
This film is about one Indonesian hero, the first bishop in Indonesia named Soegijapranata SJ during the period of Pacific War (1940-1949). The story itself will be focused on the variety of human stories during the war (the Indonesian civilians, Indonesian fighters, and also Dutch and Japanese soldier) with him as the connecting line between each story. Through their stories, Soegija tried to remind us about the true value of independence and humanity.
