The story in this film is set in Jakarta in 1946, a period full of turmoil after independence. Jakarta at that time was abandoned by the President and burned by foreign troops.
The shooting process took place in historic cities such as Semarang, Surabaya, Ambarawa, and Yogyakarta to capture the essence of that era.
The main character, Isa, is a 35-year-old former fighter who now works as an elementary school teacher. He has a reputation as a seasoned soldier.
However, war trauma has left him impotent, a deep personal conflict amid the chaos of the country.
Isa lives with his wife, Fatimah, and their adopted child, Salim, in the midst of chaotic Jakarta. Armed conflict has erupted again against the Dutch.
He is asked to carry out a secret mission to defend the nation, but on the other hand, his wife Fatimah is having an affair with Hazil, Isa's violin student.
Together with Hazil, Isa devised a bold plan to blow up the cinema in Pasar Senen. The cinema became a gathering place for NICA and British officials.
Their main target is Van Mook, the Governor-General of the Dutch East Indies, in an effort to stop colonial grip.
This film stars a lineup of top Indonesian actors and actresses ready to bring each character to life. Chicco Jerikho, Ariel Tatum, and Jerome Kurnia are the main highlights.
