Bali is the only Hindu-majority province in Earth's largest Muslim nation. Roughly 87 percent of its population is Hindu, surrounded by 270 million Muslims in the country around it. The island runs on three calendars at once, holds more than 20,000 temples on a landmass smaller than Connecticut, and once a year goes completely silent for 24 hours. So silent that satellites have photographed it as a dark hole in a sea of electric light. This is the Bali most visitors never actually see.
In this documentary, discover how Bali built a thousand-year-old Hindu civilization on the eastern edge of the Muslim world, and what holds it together when the planes stop landing.
Take a breath. Stay a while.

Bali is not - and have never been - The Island of gods, it is still the island of thousands of evil spirits, and the Balinese are still scared to death of them.
