In 1970, Typhoon Olga struck Osaka, Japan. Amid the roaring winds, dancer Sentot Sudiharto stands on a cluster of rocks and dances against the force of the storm. Sardono W. Kusumo captures the encounter between the human body and the power of nature, moving from Osaka's urban landscape toward trees, rocks, and the elemental force of the storm. Through an experimental approach to filming and in-camera editing, the dance becomes inseparable from the unpredictable movements of nature.
