Synopsis

[/custom_font][vc_separator type=\”transparent\”][vc_column_text][dropcaps type=\’square\’ color=\’#ffffff\’ background_color=\’#F0B580\’ border_color=\’#F0B580\’]I[/dropcaps]n an oldBuddhist monastery in Lawang, East Java, Master Liong had a strange premonition. A dream involving a Buddha-like baby and a Bodhi tree. The next day, he found a baby boy who was left in a box beneath a tamarind tree. The baby had a peculiar skull. Master Liong named him Bodhi and raised him as his own child.

Besides his skull was looking different from others, Bodhi was also overwhelmed by his sixth-sense ability. His life was miserable. Struggling with this condition, Bodhi decided to leave the monastery. He left Java and sailed to the island of Sumatra. But his real adventure only started when a friend handed him a ticket to Malaysia as gift, where Bodhi met some backpackers there and was intrigued to follow them.

After arriving in Thailand, Bodhi met two people who would change his life forever. He met Kell, a tattoo artist with 617 tattoos covering his body. Kell told Bodhi how he had traveled far to Thailand just to meet him. Kell had a mission to transfer his tattoo skills to Bodhi, whom he believed would be the last person who wouldcomplete him by making the 618th tattoo. In exchange, Kell would give Bodhi an equally special tattoo, only when Bodhi was considered ready.

And there was Ishtar Summer, a seductively beautiful woman who had interest in Bodhi for a mysterious reason. After Bodhi put a tattoo on Ishtar on behalf of her request, Bodhi and Kell knew they had to complete their exchange. Kell drew a Star Tetrahedron tattoo on Bodhi. But when his turn came to receive, Kell hesitated and left Bodhi.

Afterwards, Bodhi continued his journey and ended up as a marijuana picker in the Golden Triangle. There, he decided to go back, find Kell, and finish the exchange that they had made before. Bodhi received a rather vague clue on Kell\’s whereabouts and relying mostly on his intuition, Bodhi went to Cambodia, where he found himself later trapped in a mine field. Bodhi was rescued by Epona, a deminer. Bodhi’s encounter with Epona led him to reunite with Kell.

A tragedy occurred and Bodhi ended his backpacking journey. He came back to Indonesia, roaming from one city to another. Skilled as a tattoo artist, Bodhi found home in the punk community, led by the charismatic Bong who embraced Bodhi like a brother.

By accident, one night Bodhi found a document in a rented computer. A seemingly random letter addressed to someone called The Root. Somehow, Bodhi knew, the letter was meant for him. His next journey was about to begin.

Meanwhile, on the other side of the globe, Gio Alvarado arrived in Vallegrande to visit Chaska Pumachua, his friend’s mother whom Gio loved like his own family. A cheerful and festive day in Vallegrande turned gloomy when an unknown man appeared. The man gave four stones with engraved symbols to Gio. He also whispered a warning. Not long after, Gio received a bad news from his friend, Paulo, who was based in Cusco. Diva Anastasia, the love of his life had disappeared in a remote area of Rio Tambopata, Amazon. Filled with fear and questions, Gio began his search for the missing Diva.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][vc_column width=\”1/4\”][q_box top_padding=\”90\”][icon_list_item icon_pack=\’font_elegant\’ fa_icon=\’fa-arrow-left\’ fe_icon=\’arrow_carrot-right\’ icon_type=\’normal_icon_list\’ icon_color=\’#F0B580\’ border_type=\’\’ border_color=\’\’ title=\’RELEASE DATE\’ title_color=\’#F0B580\’ title_size=\’15px\’]2012
