Synopsis
Having grown up in the countryside, innocent Cahaya heads to Jakarta in search of her father, whom she has not seen since she was 4 years old. But the father she meets there is no longer the warm and tender man she remembers—he is selling himself to other men on the streets. Cahaya is shocked to realize that the person she runs into on the streets wearing a red miniskirt is actually her father, but can’t just dismiss her love and longing for him. Her father, Saiful, is also initially unable to accept Cahaya as his daughter, but slowly starts to open up, and the two of them start to have night time walks together.-- Busan International Film Festival
