Description
On the Indonesian island of Bali, the arts permeate almost every aspect of daily life - attempts to please the gods and placate demons. Much of human effort is directed toward these attempts, and the pinnacle of such efforts is the ritual Eka Dasa Rudra, held once every hundred years and involving the entire population of the island. There is also a political dimension to Eka Dasa Rudra. In 1963, upon the urging of then-President Sukarno, Balinese priests prepared to hold the ritual before the proper year. Preparations were met with the first eruption in recorded history of Bali's great volcano, Gunung Agung. This terrible disaster was seen as a confirmation of the gods' and demons' powers and the necessity of honoring the traditional calendar. In the spring of 1979, when Eka Dasa Rudra was finally held, President Suharto arrived, but not by his helicopter, which, it was feared, might have impeded the demons' descent. Distributed by PBS Distribution.
