Maya, a 22-year-old young woman living in the bustling heart of Jakarta, feels trapped in the monotony of her life. The vibrant city, once a source of inspiration, now suffocates her, and the walls of her tiny apartment echo with the weight of her stress and overthinking. Longing for freedom and clarity, she decides to leave it all behind for two weeks-one week in Bali, one week in Lombok. It's her chance to escape, disconnect, and rediscover herself.
But when her ferry unexpectedly stops at an uncharted island between Bali and Lombok, everything changes. The ferry driver cryptically tells her, "This is a place for those who need it, not for those who seek it." Torn between suspicion and curiosity, Maya steps off the ferry, embarking on a journey that challenges her ideas of freedom, conformity, and self-discovery. On this mysterious island, she must confront not only its strange rules but also the depths of her own soul to find what she's truly searching for.
