Synopsis

After his military service, Faris returns home only to be met with a sudden divorce request from his wife, Ratna. Confused by Ratna's changed attitude and behavior, Faris begins investigating to find the reason. While suspecting an affair with a colleague she works with, Faris discovers that there is a more sinister secret behind her transformation. This remake of Andrzej ZULAWSKI's 1981 film shares the original's approach of amplifying the mysterious femininity that completely disrupts the rational world of the male protagonist within a detective narrative, but its dreamlike and surreal mise-en-scène, reminiscent of David LYNCH, unfolds another vision. The male anxiety is juxtaposed with bold and daring images filled with primal energy, gradually and intensely amplifying the psychological unease.
