Amid the lush abundance of Java's landscape, two boys spend their
days exploring the vast lakes and teeming forests. But as time
passes the boys come to realize that their shared sense of
adventure cannot bridge the gulf between their backgrounds, for one
is the son of a Dutch plantation owner, and the other the son of a
servant. Inevitably, as they grow up, they grow estranged and it is
not until years later that they meet again. It will be an explosive
and emblematic meeting that marks them even more deeply than their
childhood friendship did.
