Our Land is the Sea (Full Film)

Bajau is freedom. Before the Republic of Indonesia, before there were borders in the sea, we were free to live. In this way, we can live according to the sea and all natural resources in the sea.

Even now we have released life on the coast as nomadic people, we still live in the sea because the sea is our kingdom. But we don't control the sea, the sea is the one who controls our lives. Now our lives change quickly because the fish are almost finished.

Now, everywhere is destroyed, and our children are no longer going to the sea, and they have started to forget their traditions. Because the sea is considered something low. The change happened in front of my eyes. I am the only one who is now 44 years old, seeing the change in the last 15 years. Only 15 years, very different.

I used to go to school until I was in sixth grade. But I didn't have money to buy food. So I sold my food. I hid my food. I gave it to my husband to bring fish from the sea. I decided not to go to school. But I was closer to my grandparents.

I used to go to the island with my daughter to look for fish for three days. We would go there, go back, and sleep on the beach for three days. But during the summer, there was no wind. But many friends of my daughter's went to bring their grandchildren. But I like it the most when there are people who are sick, especially those who are sick from the sea.

I was taken to a house where I didn't have a body. I was called by my grandmother. She advised me to take water and alcohol to the sea. Then she called all the kings of the sea to give me one bottle of alcohol. I was baptized. Islam said that if we don't do the sunnah, we won't be Muslims. We must do the sunnah. Before I died, if there was a sunnah, I was called by my grandmother.

Now, after the dead, there is no more. The dead, the dead, bring knowledge. No one takes knowledge. I still remember when I was young, my mother still had faith in the Bajo tradition and my father was a Muslim. The village was small, but almost the majority of people were still practicing the Bajo tradition. But my father was more

He is a Muslim. He taught us to pray, taught us about Islam. I can say that 100% of the people in Indonesia are Muslims. But there is still a belief in the Bajo in the community. All Bajo people have a relationship with Gurita. So people don't know where my pet is.

But if they hit the girl and suddenly get sick, it means that they are like hitting their head and they have to do ritual rituals again. There are Bajo people who are very faithful to their traditions. I am Muslim, but I am not very practical as a Muslim. My wife is still very thick, she is Bajo.

I tell my children to grow up on their own. Don't just believe in Islam. Get used to who you are in Bajo. My grandparents are Sanro and my grandmother. They are the true Bajo tradition heirs. They also pray. What happens in the Bajo tradition is that they see

and the arwahs are also the contenders of Allah. So in Islam, this is not allowed. In the Islamic language, it is called musrik, to believe in other than God. I have embraced Islam and understood about the orders and prohibitions in Islam. Since college, I have no longer followed the traditions

I don't want to follow the tradition of my mother telling me to do this. I don't want to do it. The Samabahari still inherit old stories. They don't want to change. Maybe the language of the young Makassar people has not moved on. They don't have any changes that they can consider modern.

I am the host of the event. I take care of the food and the bank. We have a lot of visitors, maybe 30 people. It's very crowded. It's a festival village. We have to buy a lot of food. It's a bit confusing. A lot of people ask about this and that. But people come to help.

Do you know how to read? I don't know. I'm not old. You're not old enough to understand. I'm not old enough to understand. That's my problem. It's not your problem.

I started here in 1975 because there were no religious officials here. I'm a non-religious person, but I feel sorry for this. So, for the needs of any religious religion in the society, we have to find people from the land with different cultures. This is the problem for the new generation. The tradition here is not to play. I'm a tikkam, I'm drunk, I'm a tikkam. It's not a problem. That's where I come in.

Because the tradition of the elders was still there. If there were two or three people sitting, they would drink. That's what I slowly talked about. I created children in the mosque. I taught them all about religious education. I gave them religious schools. I gave them access to the Sanabiyya. Now there is an elementary school, there is an elementary school, there is a madrasa, there is an elementary school. Alhamdulillah, now there are religious schools.

That's how the journey of history from today to today is. I also left my house. Because if we only stay here for an hour, how can we cross the big village? With a brother who is more than a person. With the presence of these children, these teenagers, finally my parents want to follow the children of the teenagers. I have all my grandchildren in the mosque. But now, let alone Bajo, he has been in the army. No matter what kind of resistance, he has been in the army.

There are differences, but only a little. It's not that bad anymore. The school is good on the land. And it's about religion. So I chose to study on the land. Maybe I have studied in Sanawiya. And I studied religious science, so I don't really believe in the Holy Spirit.

I heard that the one who was praying was a shirk who prayed to Allah Maybe he was just drinking water but it was impossible to heal people But even so, it was their tradition so it cannot be forgotten My sons will be baptized and after that they will be recognized as adults

But I don't know what is the adult sea bass if it is not related to the sea anymore. Climate change in this area has already happened. There are many resources that are a great hope for the life of the sea bass. Suddenly the availability is not enough anymore. There were still a lot of fish in the past.

The usual place to fish is more fish. Before, there were more fish. But now, we have to fish far away. It's not enough. In the past, we got 200 fish. Last year, it's not enough. It's not enough. We have the same amount of fish. We have to feed them. We have to feed them. We have to feed them. Here,

Because every day, we are being hunted or bombed by the virus. The most terrifying thing is the human activity. There are some bad things that are damaging. The song of the Lord of the Rings is the song of the Lord of the Rings.

The land is not good. The weather is not good. The weather here is not good. So the children have to go to school. It's not like what the father did.

Maybe in the future, if they can't do it anymore, they might have to find a job on the land. And that makes them feel like they're not the Bajo people anymore. Why does Sama Bahari have to be different from others? Sama Bahari also has people who can compete with. There is no difference from others. In fact, if Sama Bahari wants to try, we can compete with them.

In my opinion, this is the choice. The people want to get more income, they just need to adapt. Sunatan, the biggest Sunatan. So I was a little confused at first, because we were there too, but not for long. They were here for a long time, the event was open.

This is a tradition from my grandparents, from the early days to now.

It's not that I pray to God, no. According to the religious people, they say they pray to God, but they don't. If we don't give them that tradition, then the children who are being baptized will be hurt. They must be used, they must not.

If you want to become an Islamic, you have to be like a Javanese. Because you are already big.

I have high hopes for Salma and Aling. They are the same as me. They will go to a good school. If they succeed in going back to the village, they will believe in Sandra. That's because of my grandmother. I am very happy to see Aling smile. I am no longer stressed. That makes me proud because I can hold a big event.

My child will be a modern adult. But what is modern? Believing in the actual boundaries that do not exist. Not only the boundaries that separate the region, but also those that separate religion from its tradition. Borders that separate the ancestors from their descendants. Borders that separate the community from its nature.

If the limit is the spirit of modern belief, I hope my children will choose the belief of Bajo.
