Summary :
How to talk about the choreographer and dancer Lari Leong fifteen years after his death?
This film is the result of a quest on which both directors set out. One came with his own personal memories of the deceased friend, the other enriched the project with his curiosity and intuition. They thought of questioning the multiple identity of the dancer: going back and forth between monastery and the capital, bell sounds and calligraphical creation, Balinean make-up and Buddhist meditation. The mystery of the natural elements which fuelled his dance: wind, space, light, moon, still waters. This film strives for the very same simplicity Lari Leong aspired to.
