Emilie Jawa 1904
The story centers on Emilie, a young and spirited French woman living in Paris. Her life changes dramatically when she marries Lucien, an official appointed by the Dutch colonial administration to serve in the Dutch East Indies (specifically Central Java). Amidst high-society dinner parties in Paris where her upcoming voyage is met with both fascination and romanticized notions of the exotic East, Emilie prepares to leave her homeland behind. Filled with a sense of adventure and dreams of a tropical world, she embarks on the long journey across the seas to Java.
