SYNOPSIS:

Johan lives alone with his mother in voluntary exile on a crocodile farm, with only a white crocodile as their confidant. Their life is disrupted when Johan falls for a girl in town, threatening their lives’ delicate balance.

In Asia, it’s normal for children to live with their parents well into their adulthood. While most parents look forward to becoming an empty-nester, Tumpal Tampubolon asks what happens when a parent takes extreme measures to keep their child around in this chilling and peculiar mother-son drama. Like the family crocodile, this matriarch will bite when you least expect it.
