Threads of Life and Asa Film's Tradition Keepers documentaries take us to the indigenous communities Threads of Life works with across Indonesia to tell stories of personal challenge and cultural survival that go beneath the surface of the archipelago's textile arts into a world of rituals and ancestors, cosmology and mythology, social and ecological wisdom.
BALI'S CEREMONIAL TEXTILES
Discover Bali's traditional textiles and understand their importance in Balinese spiritual life and culture, including the cepuk textile, as seen on Tradition Keepers: Dancing for Deities.
Threads of Life actively encourages weaving communities to revive and maintain endangered techniques of weaving and natural dyeing. We provide economic and technical support while weavers research and rediscover local practices.
