Air Mata Di Ujung Sajadah Review: the Indonesian drama film shows the heartfelt struggle of a mother

Air Mata Di Ujung Sajadah Review: The scenario was set up with a tragic ending to a love narrative that was the beginning of the film.

New Delhi: Titi Kamal (Aqilla), Fedi Nuril (Arif), and Citra Kirana (Yumna) star in the newest Indonesian film produced by Nafa Urbach. Supporting parts go to Tutie Kirana, Muhammad Faqih Alaydrus, Krisjiana Baharuddin, Mbok Tun, and Jenny Rachman.

The film Air Mata Di Ujung Sajadah (Tear at the Edge of the Sajadah) is now streaming on Netflix starting today – January 8, 2024.

Story

Halimah, Aqilla’s mother, did not approve of the marriage that resulted in the birth of her child. As a result of the tragedy that took the life of Aqilla’s husband, Halimah tells Aqilla that her baby died at delivery. Without informing Aqilla, Halimah secretly handed her grandson to the long-married couple Arif and Yumna, who were childless.

The baby was given the name Baskara, which means light. Everyone in the home is filled with joy whenever Baskara is present with Arif and Yumna’s family.

However, seven years later, Aqilla finds out that her son is still alive and living with the couple. Aqilla decides to leave her life of emptiness and make an effort to reunite with Baskara.

Review

Slowly, the picture turns into a family drama with a straightforward plot but a dramatic presentation. The scenario was set up with a tragic ending to a love narrative that was the beginning of the film. The protagonist, Aqilla, has had to endure unending misery ever since.

There is an overarching sentimentality to the narrative of Aqilla’s fight to reclaim her kid from Yumna and Arif. Creating tales that are too dramatic and evocative of human emotions might make this effect seem more real.

As the narrative progresses, Aqilla’s heartfelt plea to reunite with her biological kids can be felt clearly. On the other side, Yumna, and Arif, have been lovingly caring for her from the day she was born.

The drama tale incorporates the representation of the three major characters’ inner anguish, which poses a problem for the spectator. The screenplay, written by Titien Wattimena, is rife with elements that are sure to make the audience cry. Without coming off as condescending, the author gives most of the characters the room they need to thrive.

In addition, the tension between the two “mothers” who are vying for custody of the kid is palpable.

Even though the storyline and twists are familiar, the masterful storytelling in this piece manages to engross them.
