Lingkaran Setan

The film follows Tohir, who receives a harsh sentence from a colonial court due to his lineage rather than his crime. As he faces exile and hardship, Tohir's desperate circumstances lead him to kidnap Hasan’s son, Husin, whom he raises amidst a life of crime while maintaining a facade of respectability.

Husin, caught in a web of dual identities, struggles between his innocent love for a village girl and his reckless pursuits elsewhere. The story escalates as Tohir, now a drunkard, seeks revenge against Hasan, leading to a failed robbery attempt by Husin that ultimately reveals their true connection. This layered narrative provides a rich exploration of familial bonds and the impact of societal judgment, making it a significant piece in the drama genre.
