10 Characters resembling Indonesian Youth at the present day, as they travel through the deep jungle of globalization (eeuww…) to seek their “comfortable and secure given” identities.  The idea and the characters are based on the characters found on traditional Javanese Leather Puppets such as Anoman, Gareng, Petruk, Bagong, Limbuk, Cangik, King Rahwana, Monster Cakil, = Monster Lembu Sura, and Denawa the Evil Giant.
