SILENT FILM, GRIEF, HEALING
Cahya must face the bitter reality of losing both of his parents at the same time. In his grief, he embarks on a journey of mourning in a funeral home, accompanied by the ghosts of his parents. Along the way, Cahya recalls memories of himself with his parents—from his childhood to the painful moments of growing up. These fragments of memory gradually guide him toward understanding the meaning of loss. Eventually, Cahya slowly finds the strength to accept his grief as he reaches his parents’ funeral room and says a final farewell.
