Short filmTranscript
00:00At the beginning of the movie, we see Leila and her mother Siti, who is a mortician.
00:06Siti has brought Leila along to teach her the work, but as soon as they lift the cloth covering the corpse, Leila feels nauseated by its condition.
00:15Siti calms her down and then begins to bath the corpse.
00:18After this, when they turn the dead body, Leila is horrified to see the marks on its back, and tells her mother that these wounds look like lash marks from a whip.
00:28Siti tells her to respect the deceased, and as she begins to continue with the preparation, the corpse suddenly opens its eyes.
00:38We then see the village celebrating the circumcision ceremony of Mrs. Ida's grandson, whose mother works abroad,
00:45and during this time, Siti notices that Mrs. Ida looks a little worried and scared.
00:51After the celebration is over, Leila arrives to pick up her mother, and here it is revealed that, like her mother, Leila can see omens as well.
01:00On their way back home, Leila and Siti are joined by Arif, Siti's son, and Siti mentions that the chief has repair work on rental houses for him.
01:10Leila tells him to find a more serious job, but Siti says to let him do whatever he wants.
01:15Just then, he sees Rika and leaves there with her to fix her rented house.
01:19Later, as Siti begins to pray, she hears some noises from outside the house.
01:24She checks out the window but doesn't see anyone there.
01:27She returns and resumes praying, but during this, a demonic entity appears behind her, repeating the prayers with her.
01:35Siti continues praying, and the entity disappears, but just then, Leila unintentionally scares her by appearing suddenly.
01:43Leila wanted to learn makeup and was planning to pursue it.
01:46However, when Siti asks her if she doesn't want to be like her, Leila gets upset and goes to the kitchen to wash the dishes.
01:54Siti opens a food packet and finds it rotten.
01:57She instructs Leila to close all the doors and not let anybody in.
02:01Confused, Leila asks her where she is going, but Siti doesn't respond, and as she opens the door to leave, they hear an announcement that Mrs. Ida has passed away.
02:10Siti reaches Mrs. Ida's house and is shocked to see that Ida has died a tragic death.
02:15She asks everyone to prepare everything, stating that she will wash Ida's body herself.
02:21Meanwhile, Leila wakes up hearing some sounds, as if someone is walking on the roof.
02:26Perplexed, she gets up to check, and only then the roof breaks and falls down.
02:31Just then, Arif arrives home, and when he asks what she is doing, she tells him that the roof collapsed.
02:38After a while, when Siti returns home, she collapses, and Leila and Arif rush to help her and get her in.
02:45Later that night, Leila finds her mother trying to burn something.
02:49She approaches and asks her why she is up, to which Siti asks for her help.
02:53Leila sets up the fire, and Siti takes out some blood-soaked clothes from a bag.
02:58Leila notices that the clothes belong to Ida, and asks what happened to her.
03:03Siti tells her to be quiet and explains that when you wash a corpse, you must burn everything and not let curiosity get the better of her.
03:11Leila takes the bag from her, saying she will burn the rest and asks her to go back to bed.
03:16When Siti comes inside, she is terrified to see her own horrifying reflection in the mirror.
03:22Later, Leila returns to the room and lies on the bed, but when Siti asks if she locked the door, Leila doesn't reply.
03:29Siti turns and is shocked to see that Leila is not there.
03:33Just then, Leila enters the room, sits on the bed, and lies down next to Siti.
03:38Siti apologizes to Leila, saying she is the reason she had to go through all of this.
03:43She tells her that each person has their own role in life, and then she turns to the other side to sleep.
03:50Later, Siti hears some strange noise in the house, and when she looks up, she is terrified to see a demonic shadow coming towards her.
03:58And before she can understand anything, the entity chokes her and kills her.
04:03The next morning, when Leila wakes up, she is horrified to find her mother's dead body lying beside her.
04:09Hearing her screams, Arif rushes in and is equally shocked to see their mother's lifeless body.
04:15Later, all the people of the village gather at their house, and Tuti tells Leila that it's getting late, and asks if they should wash her mother's body.
04:23Ana also advises her not to wait too long.
04:27Inside, the chief asks Arif how his mother died, to which Arif replies that his sister told him she had a hemorrhage as there were no wounds and no one had entered the room.
04:38Leila gets ready to wash her mother's corpse, and as she begins, she is horrified to see her mother's eyes wide open, which were closed some time ago.
04:48She tells her mother to accept her death and requests her to allow her to wash her.
04:53Leila then closes her mother's eyes again and also closes her own eyes, remembering her mother.
04:58After a while, she feels as if her mother is holding her hand and telling her that washing the deceased is an honorable job.
05:05The last human the deceased encounters is the meditator before they reach the Almighty.
05:10Siti's spirit helps her to wash the corpse, and after a while, when Leila finishes, Siti's mouth opens.
05:17Leila is shocked to see something inside it, and when she pulls it out, she is horrified to discover that it is a piece of barbed wire.
05:25Next, we see that Siti has been buried, and one by one, everyone leaves after offering their condolences to Leila and Arif.
05:34Later that evening, Ana visits Leila and gives her the condolence money from the villagers, and she asks if Leila doesn't mind if they combine the prayer for Mrs. Eda and her mom.
05:44Leila agrees and goes inside, but other neighbors are shocked to see blood on Siti's bed.
05:50They ask Leila how she died, but Leila shuts the door and locks it.
05:54Later, when Arif is checking his tools, Leila says he doesn't seem sad at all, and he even refused to wash mom.
06:01Arif simply gets up and leaves with his toolbox, and as Leila continues to wash her mother's bedsheet, she is shocked to find another piece of barbed wire in the water.
06:11However, when she tries to take it out, it vanishes.
06:14Siti's friends discuss why this is happening at the same time.
06:18They wonder if, since Siti and Eda were best friends, their times of death are also close.
06:24Terri says she has suspicions, feeling that it is all too strange, and wonders if they were cursed.
06:30Ana tells her not to talk nonsense, and suddenly Terri accidentally cuts her finger, and her blood gets on their photo.
06:37That night, while everyone in the village is praying for the peace of Eda and Siti's souls, a demonic hand picks up a prayer book.
06:45Terri hears a demonic voice reciting prayers, but she doesn't see anyone there.
06:49The next moment, Eda and Siti's ghost whisper prayers in her ears, and she screams,
06:54I don't want to die!
06:56The chief tries to calm her and everyone else down, saying it looks like the entire village has lost power, and suggests using candles for now to finish the prayers.
07:06They light the candles and continue the prayers.
07:09This time, Leila sees the ghosts of her mother's friends sitting among the villagers.
07:14She becomes confused and scared, because she can see Ana's ghost, even though Ana is sitting in front of her, reciting prayers.
07:23Suddenly, Ana's ghost haunts Leila, and just then, the lights come back on.
07:28Later, when Leila returns home, she is shocked to see her mother praying in the house.
07:33However, as she approaches her, the prayer gown falls to the floor.
07:37Scared, Leila picks up the gown, but then she steps on a piece of barbed wire.
07:42In pain, Leila removes the piece from her foot, and only then does her mother's ghost appear.
07:48Meanwhile, Ana is talking to her son Bimo, who has gotten a job outside the village.
07:53During their conversation, she gets scared when she sees a ghost peeking from a room.
07:58Bimo asks her, what's the matter, to which she replies that it's nothing.
08:02After Bimo leaves, Ana goes to check the room, where the door of a wardrobe opens on its own.
08:08Perplexed, she enters the room, but the door suddenly shuts.
08:12Ana tries to open it, but finds it locked, but as she turns away, the door opens again.
08:18Confused, Ana moves forward to check, and suddenly demonic hands grab her.
08:23Bimo rushes there, hearing her screams and finds her vomiting blood, and the door shuts as he tries to enter.
08:29But when he manages to break in, he discovers her mother's dead body there.
08:33Later, the chief asks Arif where Leila is, mentioning he called her, but she isn't answering.
08:39Arif goes in to find her and tells her that people are waiting for her to start washing the body.
08:44She expresses her fear, to which he responds by reminding her that she washed her mom's body alone yesterday.
08:50So why is she afraid now?
08:52She gets up and locks the door, saying he won't understand.
08:56Later, Bimo arrives and pleads for Leila's help, but she does not respond to him either.
09:01Meanwhile, Draja, a police officer, tells the chief that it's now the third incident and asks if no one is going to report it.
09:08The chief says their families refuse to, to which Draja asks if can he see the body?
09:14The chief asks Bimo if he is okay with it, to which Bimo responds that his mom's death had nothing to do with the cops since it's not a murder.
09:23Draja expresses concern, noting that this marks the third death, and suggests that if anything suspicious arises, they could send the body for an autopsy.
09:33However, Bimo refuses, stating that he will wait for Leila to bath his mom.
09:38Meanwhile, Leila hears Ana asking for her help, and as she opens her eyes, she is terrified to see Ana's ghost in front of her, which disappears the next moment.
09:49However, when she turns, she is startled to see the ghost there again.
09:53Arif arrives and asks her what's the matter, but she remains quiet.
09:57Arif tells her that he was at Bimo's house and Draja wanted to check Ana's corpse, but Bimo wants her to wash the body first.
10:04Leila asks how Ana died, to which Arif replies that Bimo told him she vomited blood before she died, similar to their mom.
10:12Leila prepares to leave the house to wash Ana's body, and instructs Arif to close all the doors and not let anyone in while she is gone.
10:20Next, we see Leila at Bimo's house preparing to wash Ana's corpse, but before she begins, she checks inside Ana's mouth to see if there's also a piece of barbed wire there.
10:31Finding nothing, Leila starts washing Ana's body, but suddenly Ana's corpse sits up and begins tapping her stomach with her hand,
10:39and when Leila checks there, she discovers a barbed wire coming out of Ana's stomach.
10:44Scared, Leila carefully pulls the wire out, and Ana's corpse collapses onto her.
10:49Leila lays her back down, but is shocked to see that Ana's eyes are open.
10:53She tries to close them, but they keep opening despite her repeated attempts, and suddenly Ana holds her hand and asks for help.
11:01Later, when Ana's body is being carried away for burial, the chief tells Terry that Draja wants to ask her some questions.
11:08He inquires if she had any recent problems, arguments, or animosity with the deceased, to which Terry responds that she wasn't that close to them, so he shouldn't ask her.
11:18The next day, as Bimo prepares to move out of the house, he tells Leila that he saw it happen, and no one was there, but there was something strange.
11:27She asks what he means, to which he tells her that before her mom died, she called his name Noor, and it wasn't the first time.
11:34He then shows her some photos and asks if she remembers their trip to the botanical garden when they were kids, and in the image, he points out Noor.
11:42Leila asks where Noor is now, to which Bimo explains that it's been a long time since Noor left the village when they were kids.
11:50They used to be very close, but something happened, something related to his late father and the other husbands in the village, though he's not entirely sure what.
11:58When Leila comes out, Terry approaches her and confides that something seems off about the deaths of Anna, Ida, and her mother.
12:06She mentions there was blood everywhere, and she is convinced it's a curse.
12:10Later that night, Leila goes to the graveyard and digs up Ida's grave.
12:14She searches her body and finds a barbed wire coming out of her thighs.
12:18Scared, she carefully pulls it out, but suddenly, she finds herself surrounded by many ghosts, slowly moving towards her.
12:26Terrified, Leila manages to climb out of the grave and runs away.
12:30The next morning, it is announced that someone disturbed Ida's grave last night, and all the villagers are asked to report their activities from that night.
12:39Later, Leila visits Ida's house to learn more about Noor.
12:43She encounters Tuti there and asks her about Noor.
12:46Tuti reveals that Noor was evil and has ruined everyone's marriage.
12:52But before she can elaborate further, Tuti suddenly hears a demonic whispering that unsettles her deeply.
12:58She begins to scratch her own face and peels off the skin, terrifying Leila.
13:03Leila pleads with her to stop, but then she realizes that Tuti has come up behind her, and Leila is shocked to see that there is no one else there.
13:11Tuti asks Leila what she is doing there, but Leila, in turn, asks Tuti what she knows about Noor.
13:17Tuti responds by mentioning that someone disturbed Ida's grave and suggests they leave her house.
13:22Meanwhile, Arif finds a spade under Leila's bed, and just then, Leila arrives.
13:27He asks her if she dug up someone's grave, to which Leila responds that she needs to find out why their mom kept Ida's death a secret.
13:35Arif suggests reporting it to the police, but Leila says this issue has nothing to do with the police.
13:41She shows him the barbed wire she found inside her mom's mouth, and in every other corpse, suggesting they were cursed.
13:48Just then, they are distracted as they see Terry running away from the scene.
13:52Later, Terry tells a woman that Ida, Siti, and Ana died from a curse.
13:57The woman shares this with others, and they visit the chief to express their concerns, but he suggests they calm down and don't think about it.
14:05But this news spreads throughout the village.
14:08That night, Leila confronts Terry for spreading gossip about Noor.
14:12Terry defends herself, but just then, Drajot intervenes and asks what's going on.
14:18He advises them that if there's anything concerning, they should inform him first.
14:22Leila questions what the police can do about it, to which Drajot reveals that Noor is dead.
14:27She was a widow with a daughter who might be around Leila's age, but she died by suicide, Leila asks, where Noor's daughter is now, to which Drajot asks her to come with him.
14:37And advises her that if anything else comes up, she should come to him rather than acting alone and being reckless.
14:44After Drajot leaves, Leila confronts Terry again, but to her horror, Terry makes a demonic voice and the door closes by itself.
14:52Terry, seemingly possessed, pleads with Leila for help, and reveals that she was accused of stealing their husbands and ruining their families.
15:02Leila realizes that Terry is possessed by Noor's spirit, and Noor shows Leila how those women in the village accused her of being a homewrecker and asked her to leave.
15:12Leila pushes her aside, refusing to believe her pleas.
15:16Noor continues to insist that she is innocent, but Leila harshly tells her she deserved to die and commands her to leave, and after a while, Noor leaves Terry's body.
15:27Later that night, while Leila is sleeping in her house, a demonic shadow approaches her.
15:32It begins to strangle her, causing Leila to choke and appear to succumb to death.
15:37The scene transitions to them taking her body for burial.
15:40However, suddenly Leila wakes up and begins screaming for help.
15:44It turns out she was dreaming, and she wakes up for real.
15:48Leila sneaks into Rika's house and discovers a broken tile on the floor.
15:52When she removes it, she finds some photographs hidden inside.
15:56As she examines the photographs, she realizes they are of her mom and her friends, and to her shock, she discovers that Rika is Noor's daughter.
16:05Meanwhile, Tutti gets attacked and killed by the demonic entity.
16:09On the other hand, when Leila reaches Terry's house, she finds her praying.
16:14Leila approaches her and explains that everything is connected to Noor, and that she has evidence.
16:19However, to her horror, Noor's ghost takes the form of Siti and her friends and shows Leila their conversation, revealing how they accused Noor of seducing their husbands.
16:30Just then, Leila hears the announcement that Tutti has passed away, and Noor says that these are their sins and not to make them hers.
16:38Next, Leila visits Tutti's house to wash her body, and there she finds a barbed wire in Tutti's eyes.
16:45As she tries to remove it, Tutti suddenly wakes up and sits up on the table.
16:49Horrified, Leila watches as a barbed wire crawls inside Tutti's arm and then emerges from her mouth.
16:55Leila pulls the wire out, and at that moment, the ghosts of her mother and her friends appear, surrounding her, and they plead for her help, saying that it hurts.
17:05After a while, Draja asks Leila to open the door, but inside, we see that Leila is tied with barbed wire and struggling.
17:14However, when Draja breaks in, he finds her lying on the floor and brings her back to her senses.
17:20He tells her that the body requires an immediate autopsy and asks if she is hiding something.
17:26He suspects her of disposing of evidence under the pretext of bathing the bodies.
17:31But Leila points out Rika, saying she did everything, and reveals that Rika is Noor's daughter.
17:37She confronts Rika and accuses her mother of being a homewrecker, demanding to know what her mother did wrong.
17:43Rika tries to calm her down, saying, these are their sins, don't make them hers.
17:49Saying this, Rika leaves, and as Leila tries to stop her, suddenly many women present become possessed, one by one, and start falling.
17:58The rest of the women attack Rika's house, and the scene transitions to years ago, showing Leila's mother and her friends, along with other women, doing the same thing.
18:08They break into Rika's house, drag her out of her house, and begin beating her in the same manner.
18:14However, it is revealed that while Siti and her friends were involved in torturing Noor, Terry was not with them.
18:21Frustrated, Rika screams for them to stop, saying that they did the same thing to her mother many years ago.
18:27She acknowledges that this may be her sin, but insists that all of them are also part of it.
18:33One woman accuses her of being a killer, just like her mother, and the beating continues.
18:38Meanwhile, Siti's spirit approaches Leila and asks her to stop the violence.
18:43Leila complies and rushes to intervene, but the crowd doesn't listen to her and starts beating her as well.
18:49Arif rushes in to save them, but a rod hits him directly on the head, causing his death.
18:54As Leila mourns her brother's death, the villagers disperse, leaving her in sorrow.
18:59Time passes, and we see Leila continuing the corpse washing.
19:03She takes out a pin from a dead body, and it becomes clear that she has now cursed the village.
