Missing Home

This movie is not just about family conflict. It's also about the urge to preserving traditional culture in modern era, where people have their own desires which may contradict with the culture. It's a story most family could relate to. For the drama, it's met my expectation, it successfully makes me cry. I was skeptical with the comedy, I always find comedy in movies are cringe. But this one is not, the comedy feels like it's just happened naturally. Even though this movie is more focused on the drama, sometimes I laughed at the funny scenes. There's a lot of Bataknese culture showed in this movie. The beautiful views of Toba Lake made this movie even more better.

I enjoyed it a lot. Really a worth try!

Not just a family drama, but also shows the gender role and expectation in the household. Nice music, landscape and culture story of Batak :) really good acting! From crying, laughing and angry moment, they got it all perfect.

Taught us about cultural ceremony and value of Batak; family is number 1. Make me feel missing home Now :) and definitely worth of my tears to watch the happy ending.

Congrats the crew! You made it to the academy award! We want more this kind of film being produce and watch by Indonesian families and beyond.

Really like the sense of humor here! Not too much but well accepted.

This movie is able to create a perfect example of how a "comedy based actor/actress movie" should be done. There's no need to excessive gimmick or trying to make every actor/actress stand out for their own known persona.

The story itself contains emotional rollercoaster and success to raise the common family problems based on culture and all the transitions happening on current parent-child generation gap.

Kudos to everyone that involved in this movie, there's no flop moment on acting or scenes. Would love to see your next project.

The movie was made suitably appropriate to represent situation in a typical Bataknese family.. perfectly framed in the 2hours duration.

The conflicts, hard character, melancholic, the moral, responsibility including their complexity are wrapped in a package.

Really wish that the movie could be also released in a streaming platform, so that Bataknese people in overseas can watch it.

I hope that there will continued sequels coming.. 💙

Everything is perfect. The story is very strong. The flow from beginning to the end is very smooth. Tika's acting wonderfull. Colouring with relevant and beautiful Batak' song. Indonesian movie is really advancing. Endorsing you and all family, if possible with your dad and mom, watching the movie together...
