Trapped in a cycle of hope, failure and renewal, Denok and Gareng are a young Muslim couple yearning to improve their lives. In the modest house of Gareng’s mother, they start a small pig farming business, hoping for a lucky break to help the family. But new challenges constantly arise, putting their cheerfulness and patience to the test. Through an entirely observational approach, the film explores a strong loving relationship inside a strikingly vivid family that sticks together, fights back, and laughs about what others might consider a Sisyphean fate.
