RINDU LAUTAN (Longing for the Ocean)  What happens when paradise becomes a commodity? This relatable documentary follows Aryan, an expat who grew up in Bali, as he questions the island's transformation from untouched surf paradise to overtourism ground zero, where skyrocketing land prices displace locals, reckless development destroys ecosystems, and the tourism machine spins out of control. But this isn't just about the issues. He ventures to a remote surf destination that mirrors Bali's back in the days, a place on the edge of the same fate, waiting to be discovered. He goes to answer one urgent question: Can we break the cycle before it repeats? This is more than a surf film, it's a wake-up call.
