In episode 17 of the Indonesian season, we will continue our journey around the island of gods and demons - Bali. Today, we will see perhaps one of the most impressive, shocking and grandiose spectacles on the island - the ritual of mass cremation. Only the Balinese know how to turn a sad event into a grand celebration with dancing and fun. Balinese traditions are so unique that you can only understand them with the help of an orientalist, so we will go to visit the best expert on Indonesia in the CIS. Mikhail Tsyganov will show how to turn your life into a dream - to live and work in the tropics all year round, renting a luxurious villa in Bali for the price of a Khrushchev-era apartment in Kyiv. And for dessert - a cultural program. For the first time in the history of the Balinese theater - a Ukrainian, not a Balinese, will take the stage! Dmitry Komarov will play the role of a half-demon, half-priest in one of the most important scenes of the Ramayana.
