# Translation The story tells of Baruang, a village youth who lives with his mother. He is uneducated and only knows how to do village work. The village children like Baruang because he is kind-hearted. In his village there is a vast communal land that is not cultivated by the villagers because it yields no results. Baruang aspires to become a driver and takes a driving license at a driving school. There he meets Moi, a son of a people's representative who understands the difficulties of village people. After obtaining his driving license, Baruang goes to the city to look for work and stays at his friend's house. At the same time, an entrepreneur named Rasdani plans to buy lands in Baruang's village to develop it as an agro-tourism area. After helping Rasdani and his associates from being robbed, Baruang is hired as a driver by Rasdani. Baruang returns to the village after learning that his mother was bitten by a snake and subsequently dies.
