An action-packed martial arts adventure set in a steampunk futuristic version of Indonesia in 2032 that will put you on the edge of your seat from start to finish. When Gaspar's (Reza Rahadian) artificial heart starts malfunctioning, he is given 24 hours to live. That's just enough time for him to put together a team of assassins (Shenina Cinnamon and Laura Basuki on top form) to help him investigate a mass slaughter case involving the government. Along the way, he encounters an informant who hints that everything ties into the long-ago disappearance of Gaspar's childhood friend Kirana at the hands of a human-trafficking crook.
Director Yosep Anggi Noen puts the audience through its paces in this visually stunning thriller.
