The story in this independent film depicts a life full of conflict by using the story of the Ramayana as a benchmark for the story. It includes almost all aspects of life: from the problem of a love triangle within a family (with the characters Setyo, Siti, and Ludiro) to social, political, and economic issues that sacrifice the lives of ordinary people. This film is unique because it combines elements of drama, dance, and traditional Indonesian clothing and displays Indonesia's panoramic beauty. Indonesian artists in these fields also helped animate this film.
