Bhante Dhammariya, a young monk living at a monastery far from the urban sprawl of Indonesian city life, finds a cell phone that was accidentally left behind by a practitioner. Tempted to use the device to call his family, Bhante Dhammariya falls into a distracted state and begins to reminisce on his former life as a householder. The incident, seemingly innocuous, leads him to long for his family and question his own monastic vows.
