Merantau.Yuda, a skilled practitioner of Silat Harimau from West Sumatra, is in the final preparations to begin his "Merantau" a centuries old rite-of-passage that will see him leave the comforts of his idyllic farming village and make a name for himself in the bustling city of Jakarta. In the capital, a chance encounter results in Yuda defending the orphaned Astri from becoming the latest victim of a European human trafficking ring led by the wildly psychotic Ratger and his right-hand man Lars. With Ratger injured in the mêlée and seeking both his "merchandise" and bloody retribution, Yuda's introduction to this bustling city is a baptism of fire as he is forced to go on the run with Astri and her younger brother Adit as all the pimps and gangsters that inhabit the night hound the streets chasing their every step. With escape seemingly beyond their grasp, Yuda has no choice but to face his attackers in an adrenaline charged, jaw-dropping finale.
