Description

Video by: BASAbali

In English

While at the beach with her grandmother, a fierce monster emerges from the water and starts attacking people. It turns out that the monster was a harmless sea creature who has himself suffered from ingesting ocean plastic. Luh Ayu Manik Mas comes to help, but struggles with the ethics of slaying a monster who himself is a victim of human pollution.
