De Indische tafel, jongens van de Japanse kampen

In De Indische Tafel, men in their nineties, who meet weekly for an Indonesian lunch, reflect on their Indonesian childhood, a childhood they never spoke about, but which profoundly shaped them. Using never-before-seen footage from Japanese propaganda films, they revisit their youth in the Japanese camps during World War II. Born in the colonial Dutch East Indies before the war, they reflect on how their lives changed during the Japanese occupation, their existence in the camps, their liberation by the atomic bomb, the struggle of young Indonesian freedom fighters, and how the old colonial power returned in the form of new capitalist companies that were more profitable than ever.
