A chilling exploration of digital hauntings draws Anzel — a fearless ghost hunter from Yogyakarta — into an abandoned plantation. Alone in the eerie silence, she uncovers the dark, forgotten secrets of the Matamurka Cult, awakening an ancient terror that refuses to stay buried.
Gerutu Hutan Iblis
A found-footage horror set deep in an uncharted Indonesian jungle, where a film crew searches for a lost tribe.

Sacred Robes of Yala
A short film about a cursed robe from the year 900 that grants its wearer unholy power — but only by feeding on the life of a loved one. Each stitch hides a hunger for blood, and every touch binds them to its dark will. How much are they willing to sacrifice before the robe consumes them too?
