Synopsis

This is a story of twin sisters and their journey from hard-scrabble adolescence to tumultuous adulthood in the chaotic and turbulent times of 1990s Indonesia. It's a chronicle of culture clash and revolution. Tintin and Tutit, Indonesian garment workers; Rod Price, a quality control/buyer for an American sportswear company; and Jim Bridges and Charley Peterson, American labor organizers all intersect in critical and surprising ways that shape each of their destinies.
