The story of the dynamics of feudal family life which causes sparks problems among family members. Siswanto, Kartini's husband, lives under the same roof as his father-in-law, Raden Mas Reso, a rich man who owns a Dutch heritage plantation. There was a problem once because Paijah, the maid, was pregnant.
It was inspired by the real event of a train crash in Bintaro that claimed many victims. The story begins with Minah (Roldiah Matulessy) who lives in a dense Jakarta village with five of her grandchildren. Parents of children who have to divorce, to Minah who accept their burden. Everyday Minah earns a living as a clothes washer and a massager. His second grandson, Juned (Ferry Octora), in addition to going to school, has been looking for money by selling newspapers. Minah wants to move her granddaughter to move to the village. The dream was destroyed, the compilation of the train they were riding in a collision. Most films try to redraw the crash event. Grandma Minah became a victim. The only survivor is Juned, while his left must be amputated.
The film is a "reconstruction" of the real event of Sum Kuning’s rape that happened 10 years before, and sums up the lack of justice in the Indonesian courts. Sumirah, is raped by four vandals but during the investigation, the event is given a ridiculous interpretation when Sum is forced to confess that she was trying to gain popularity for herself. During the trial, the true facts are revealed gradually and this ranks as one of the best courtroom films ever made complete with spirited and lively dialogue.
A young martial arts master sets out on a quest to find his missing parents and brother.
The “Maut Club” (Death Club) gang is led by Bing, nicknamed The Boss, and consists of kids. Some are rascals; some are just curious, while some are just bored. Harassing people on the street is what the group does. One day, there is a fight between Maut Club and the Harimau Lapar (Hungry Tiger) gang, during which Benyamin accidently shoots a policeman. Everyone is caught except for Boss and Benyamin. In prison, Vivi, who has rich parents, tries to commit suicide out of shame. She manages to get a house arrest instead, thanks to the efforts of Eddy Sud, a university student who lives with Vivi’s family. Boss and Benyamin come to the house and the latter confesses that he was the one who shot the policeman. Boss and Benyamin then turn themselves in to the police. The story ends with a farewell party for Vivi, who is going abroad to study. Boss sings a song titled “Kembali ke Jalan yang Benar” or “Returning to a Righteous Path”.
Three young women go through a series of misadventures (and jobs).
Bing works as a radio broadcaster in a private-owned radio station, “Undur-Undur”, with Benyamin S. His work is causing relationship problems with his wife so he finds relief with one of his fans, Anna Mathovani. Bing helps her debut as a singer and realises his mistake when her boyfriend shows up. Luckily his wife misses him and they reconcile. The appearance of singers and famous groups in the film seems to be intended as a selling point.
A criminal on the lam takes on a new identity as a shaman, which causes all kinds of problems when various people come to him looking for help.
Set in the world of cowboys, the sharpshooter Eddy Sud saves Vivi, Bing’s daughter. Bing himself receives a threat from a bandit group and because of that contracts Eddy Sud to help him.
Ateng and Iskak are two labourers. They meet Eddy Sud, a scholar-impostor and two eccentric men who carry a treasure map. They agree to look for the treasure. On their journey, the group meets two young girls. Ateng and Iskak start to flirt with the girls. Meanwhile, there is a group of criminals who wants to loot the treasure once they dig it up. However, the two eccentric men are just patients from the mental institution who are being trailed by the police.
Reminiscent of the film The Sound of Music, Bing Slamet works for Eddy Sud’s family, who has many children. Bing wins their heart with his singing talent. The movie is filled with messages of tourism promotion and family planning, but there is also humour, since the Kwartet Jaya comedy group are part of the cast.
Farm workers, Ateng and Iskak, have won a lottery that makes them millionaires overnight. They desert their village for Jakarta. One day, they meet Vivi, the daughter of a hotel CEO, Eddy Sud, and she introduces them to him. He manages to convince Ateng and iskak to return to their village.
This time Ateng and friends are dressed in costumes recalling Baghdad’s sultanate. The story is similar to Ali Baba and the 40 Thieves. The poor Ali Baba becomes suddenly rich after finding a treasure in a cave that actually belongs to the King of Robbers. After hearing about the treasure, Ali’s brother goes into the cave to take some but forgets the magic password and is trapped inside. When the King of Robbers arrives, he learns that Ali Baba has found out their secret. So a duel ensues between Ali Baba and the King of Robbers, and in the end the police apprehends them. Ateng and friends are hilarious and the Baghdad set and costumes bring back the nostalgia of old stage performances.
