Synopsis
In this obscure tribe, youths have to go through a difficult coming-of-age ritual to be accepted as true adults. What does it truly mean to be an adult?
Purpose
I'm 20 years old, an age that can be called an "adult" socially, but I still don't think I'm an adult. Then, we planned this work as a question of when we would become true adults.
 
The conditions for adulthood change with the times. However, sometimes adults force old traditions and evil practices even though the world has changed. We judge these things as "wrong" and think that we can become adults only when we have the courage and wisdom to correct them.
