For examples we used....Lapindo (Sidoarjo) Mud Disaster is an eruption of scalding mud and flammable vapors triggered by a gas drilling gone awry. It has buried more than a dozen villages and blocked a major highway, and is expected to keep expanding for the next 25 years. Lapindo is located close to the home town of the the director (Tooliq) and singer (Nova).Below a freshly shattered dam on the shoulder of Merapi mountain. This required a meeting with an important Islamic mountain shaman, who wanted to know we weren't up to anything frivolous or disrespectful.

Extra thanks to those who hosted, drove, filmed or loaned gear. And of course it wouldn't have been possible to complete without all of you who contributed to the Kickstarter campaign.
