Logline
GAIB is a short documentary essay film and made in collaboration with Yoga Abdul Ghani and the local community of Batu Karas, West Java.    
The work examines spirituality, death, and the presance of time in life, drawing on the rituals of every day experience in Batu Keras to explore what is unseen, and unnamed, yet carried within us and our communities.

From Arabic غَيْب (ḡayb, “that which is unseen, unperceived, unwitnessed, yet to be seen”)
