Waiting

Synopsis

Life is indeed full of waitings. We wait for our ambition to be achieved; we wait for love to arrive. Yet, for an old couple living in a leper village in Jakarta, “waiting” is their sole means for survival, as well as the way they show love and care to each other…Marginalized and forgotten by society, the couple struggle to eke out an existence in metropolitan Jakarta. Their eyes betray the resignation they feel about their daily existence.
