CGiii Comment

The first gay-themed film to come out of muslim Indonesia - the elite of Jakarta - a sort of Indo-Beverley Hills - with not a whiff of poverty.

And...it's awful.

A soundtrack that would aggravate the dead, colour that will make your eyes shrivel - this torture lasts for over 2 hours.

The migraine incurred is unrelenting.

The(ir) Blurb...

The lives of several upperclass, thirty-something Jakartans are boldly revealed for the first time in Indonesian cinema, following the career and social life of three life-long friends who seem to have conquered the metropolitan. Unfortunately, the truth is not exactly as pretty as the impression.
