The celebration of Indonesian Independence Day is still the theme of this post (as promised in my previous post) with a colossal dance performance segment. This performance was performed by local school students.

Moments during this colossal dance performance also became my entry for the #monomad challenge hosted by @monochromes

In this performance, a narrative concerning historical conflicts in the fight for independence is performed by the dancers in addition to other imaginative dances. When the accompanying music features patriotic and melancholic rhythmic instruments, dramatization becomes more apparent.

And in the following picture, the best students in the local city who are members of this dance studio act out a long historical scene of the struggle for independence. The musical accompaniment is noisy, as if there was a war going on at that time. However, this is just a reflection to remember the services of the heroes and fill it with positive things for future generations.
