Working daily in a local angkringan, Dedi finds himself relating to his customer's life stories.

Rudi, a freelance graphic designer, is too absorbed in his career and dies suddenly from exhaustion. When his spirit is reaped by Death, Rudi refuses to sign the documents that consent his departure from this world.

A young boy, Sura, lives alone and lonely in a fishing village. He earns money from chores while waiting for his father, who may never return. One day, he finds a broken sex doll washed ashore, and tries to fix it.

Bara wants to get assurance about his relationship with Demi (25), but Demi can’t provide it because she is afraid of commitment. The ups and downs of this relationship are getting more complex as Demi comes and goes as she pleases while Bara continues to keep his high expectations. As a writer, Bara reflects on his chaotic relationship in a book called Eminus Dolore. Rendezvous, togetherness, and farewell, all framed in fragments of memory. It is a story about a person trying to get the whole picture of his past and seeking closure. And it’s about someone who has fallen many times and tried to rise above all the trauma.
