Elvi (Elvy Sukaesih) strongly objected to her father marrying the woman of his choice. So she decided to go to Jakarta and enroll in nursing school. After graduating and finding a job, she planned to bring her younger sister to live with her. It turned out that her father had passed away and her younger sister had been kicked out by her stepmother. Her stepmother couldn’t contact her because she didn’t know her address. One day, while riding in a car with her boyfriend, she saw her younger sister begging from the window of another car (the world seems so small that it’s easy to run into each other). Elvi didn’t want to say anything, afraid her boyfriend would leave her. It wasn’t until her younger sister was in an accident and admitted to the hospital where she worked that Elvi came clean to her boyfriend, the top singer Achmad Albar. In fact, Achmad already knew—he had even paid for the entire medical treatment.

This documentary was initially meant to give a chance to those who had not yet seen the musical “Untukmu Indonesiaku” by Guruh Sukarnoputra. The musical is shown here but not in its complete form. The director weaves the footage of the show with what happens behind the scenes, the rehearsals and also the process of creating the show. Guruh himself makes an appearance and tells how he learns the art of Bali. There is also footage of the beginnings of the Swara Maharddika group. The director reveals Guruh’s background and influences, including his father Bung Karno and Indonesia’s wondrous nature.
