Aksara Bisu

The story

Alam (22), a photographer, is packing up his boarding room to move back to his hometown when he stumbles upon the folder of his final project, "Aksara Bisu" (Silent Letters). The photos pull him back to a regret from a year ago in Glodok Chinatown—the moment he chose only to capture the woman he admired through his lens without ever saying a word. Though haunted by dreams of a future that never was, Alam comes to realize he must bury those lingering feelings and move forward, leaving the sweet, silent memories behind.
