At DOMANI (Doshisha Merton Advocacy Network Initiative) 2025 in Kyoto, law students from around the world gathered to learn arbitration, mediation, and dispute resolution from some of the world’s leading lawyers, arbitrators, mediators (including Sala Sihombing), and former judges. Through intense cross-examinations and mediation sessions, this documentary explores not only the techniques of dispute resolution, but also the psychology of conflict, listening, ego, and human connection.
More than a legal workshop, DOMANI is a journey into the art of resolution — where advocacy meets empathy, and conflict becomes an opportunity for understanding. Featuring students and legal practitioners from across Asia, and beyond.
