17 Years Old and Over

2014 · 75 min

A sincere, low-key coming-of-age story about chasing a dream against family disapproval, earnest rather than flashy.

Overview
Bagas (Ajun Perwira) really wants to be a musician. After his age of 17 old years, Bagas decides to pursue his dream and finds a way to be a musician. His mother (Ranty Purnamasari) does not approve the decision. Mother also does not approve Bagas’ relationship with Mentari (Sonya Fatmala).
