Sinopsis:
Andri is a rich Indonesian boy with impeccable connections and the not unreasonable hope that he may be president of the country someday. It happens that he has made friends with a very poor boy about his own age, Gempol. When Gempol’s shanty home is demolished in a slum-clearance project, the two boys take off into the countryside to find the poor boy’s grandparents and ensure that they take proper responsibility for his family.
»My Sky, My Home« is the story of a friendship between two children coming from the opposite ends of the social strata in Jakarta, where the economic rift widens every day. Gempol, a poor young boy who works as a trash collector and lives in the slums with his family, yearns to return to school. When he is caught peeping at other children having their lessons, a school officer accuses him of theft. One of the schoolboys, Andri, a child of a very rich family, witnesses the incident and sympathetically befriends Gempol. Their friendship deepens Andri’s awareness of less fortunate children his age. When the authorities destroy Gempol’s shantytown, he is separated form his family and forced to leave Jakarta alone to return to his rural village. In a dramatic show of friendship Andri decides to leave with him. Thus, he who had such an easy life will learn lack of comfort, the law of the street, poverty and how to struggle to survive. Avoiding clichés, »My Sky, My Home« treats all the contradictions of poverty and wealth with humour and compassion.
