Andi, I'm sorry if my idea of making this documentary...
...put so much pressure on you, but we have to do this.
Relax, just tell your story, and look at the camera, okay?
I'm Andi.
Two months ago,
my friend Rio, had gone missing when he climbed Merapi.
-Rio! -Rio!
-Where are you, Rio? -Rio
Guys! Wait!
The viral video of the climb,
leaves so many unanswered questions.
Wait, Dito! Dito!
Jamal!
-Where are you guys? -Dito! Rio!
Four of Rio's friend came back, except Rio.
Legend has it that Merapi is filled with satanic spirits.
So I know what we're about to do...
...is dangerous.
But I'm willing to do whatever it takes to find answers.
Jamal!
Rio!
Rio, where have you been? Hey, who are you?
Pause, please rewind.
What is it?
Fuck! What?
What the hell is that?
Can you zoom it?
Is that a human?
Shit! This is must be a ghost.
Until now the SAR Team still conduct sweeping on location.
The search to locate Rio Wirawan still conducted.
Survivor on behalf of Dito Sucipto and Muhammad Jamal Ali...
...has already been found on the second day of SAR operation.
Search parameters now is being expanded and involving more parties,
such as Central Java Basarnas, Yogyakarta Basarnas, Boyolali BPD,
Merapi Climbing Club, and Merbabu Climbing Club.
Until now, Rio's family still have high hopes towards this search.
I'm making this documentary, not just for myself,
but also for those who love Rio.
I'm Babon.
Me, Rio and Andi are friends since we were little.
And...
...I'm filming this documentary because I think Rio is still alive.
How do you know that?
Yeah.
I believe in him. Because he's a strong man.
And this is not the first time he disappeared while climbing.
We just wait a little longer, the wake is almost done.
-Just wait. -Okay.
Excuse me.
-Ma'am. -How are you, Andi?
I'm good, Ma'am. How about you?
I've been waiting for you.
We're sorry for being late, the traffic is terrible.
-I'm with Babon. -Just get inside.
-Babon, come in. -Yes, Ma'am.
Ma'am, how are you?
-Granny, how are you? -Excuse me.
Do you want me to take this? Let me help you.
Thank you, Ndi.
Yes, Ma'am.
Wow.
He looked so lame in here.
So cute.
-Bon? -Yeah, Ndi.
Hey. Help me, please.
After several days of searching,
the rescue team decided to stop...
...due to the weather condition.
The search area was getting unsafe, and they decided to halt the operation.
A few days later...
...they concluded...
...that Rio is dead.
Even though they never found the body.
We are asked to stay overnight.
Tomorrow they hold the funeral.
Funeral?
What do you mean?
It's for Rio.
The family still wants to hold a funeral ceremony.
But it's weird.
Tomorrow we will come to the funeral.
But Rio's body...
Bon, it's ceremonial
It's because some of the family members insist on doing it.
Since when do you smoke?
Just today.
Ndi.
Do you think there's something strange about this house?
-Don't start it, Bon. Don't... -No, I'm not.
You can see the footage on my camera if you don't believe it.
But you definitely won't believe it.
Your eyes and your camera lens are the same!
Exaggerating!
This time, please I'm begging you. Don't do it, okay?
Can't you see the condition that Rio's mother is in?
We can't leave her alone, Bon.
Ndi. Babon.
Yes, Ma'am.
I'm going to sleep first.
Rio must be happy to know that both of you are here.
Hey!
-Watch yourself, don't snore! -I can't control it.
-I'll hose you down with water for sure. -Don't blame me. I can't help it.
Who's moving it?
Ndi, wake up! Andi!
Wake up! You have to see this. Wake up!
-I will beat you up, Bon. -I'm serious.
You have to see it, hurry up!
-Look! Just look at it. -What's the matter?
Come on, follow me.
Come here. Come on, Ndi!
You have to see something. Let's go downstairs.
You go down first.
Bon, this is very rude.
You see what time it is?
-Hey, wrong way! -That's why you go first!
-You have to see it. -What? It's nothing.
-Come here. -What?
Ma'am... why don't you go to sleep?
Why didn't you go with Rio?
Wait a minute, Andi, Ndi, Ndi!
Ndi, Ndi, Andi!
Ma'am! What's wrong, Ma'am?
Bon, help me! Turn off your camera. Ma'am! Ma'am!
I honestly don't know what they want to do.
It's making Rio's mother's condition worse.
Who are you guys praying for?
-Oh my, God. -Ma'am, please calm down.
Calm down. Just calm down.
What do you mean by calm down? Who are you guys praying for?
They are praying for Rio, your son's soul.
Rio is not here.
This grave is empty.
Your son is already dead. This is Rio.
-No! Rio is still alive. -Calm down.
-He's still alive! -Calm down.
Calm down, Ma'am. Let's head home.
Let's head home.
You should take some rest.
-Sir, please excuse us. -Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Ndi, Andi! Rio!
Bon, Bon, what are you doing? Come on.
Well, this is Rio's favorite food.
You didn't need to do that, Ma'am.
Rio often asked for this dish whenever he planned on leaving.
But because I was busy,
I only managed to prepare it moments before his departure.
He ate one bowl and rushed away.
Come, have a taste.
Come on eat, Andi.
Thanks, Ma'am
-Here, Babon. -Thanks, Ma'am.
Yeah.
Here's the spoon.
Ma'am, If you don't mind me asking.
Before that incident,
did you have any bad feelings or seen strange behavior in Rio?
A few days before climbing the mountain,
Rio often worked late.
He often fell asleep in the living room because he came home too late.
Rio.
But...
Rio.
...I'm sure Rio is still out there.
I can feel it.
Rio often appears in my dreams.
Asking for help.
He is alone in the forest.
Ndi.
Rio considered you as his brother.
I also consider you as my son.
You must understand my feelings.
Ndi.
Ndi, what's that?
Hey, she's coming.
-Andi. -Yes, Ma'am.
Wait there.
Ma'am, these are all the files.
Yeah. Thanks.
Take this.
No, thanks, Ma'am.
Find Rio.
We're leaving, Ma'am.
-Yeah. -Thanks a lot.
Take care of yourself.
-Excuse us. -Yeah.
What's all that money for?
What should we do?
Ndi.
Ndi, let's go.
Hey!
-What is it, Bon! -Let's go!
What do you mean?
We have to get ready to climb Merapi.
You can't be careless if you want to climb Merapi.
You're kidding, right?
No, I'm not kidding.
Ndi, if what Rio's mother said is true, Rio may be still there.
Bon!
It's been two months. Think about it!
It's been two months since Rio left.
What do you expect?
So what then? If he had enough water and food supplies,
he can survive, especially with his surviving skills.
Yes, he can survive!
Anyway, this is his mom's wish.
Bon.
His mom can't let go of him, that's why she acted that way.
Can you let go of Rio?
Here's the thing.
What kind of friend are we, if we left Rio alone there?
You already got the money.
So, what are you gonna do about the money?
I'm struggling to explain it.
If you were in my shoes.
And she gave you the money.
You see her condition.
You think I can refuse it? For now, I have to accept it.
Okay, you accepted it. And what are you gonna do with that money?
I will return it! I will return it to her family in need.
I won't take that money.
Or you can use that money to find Rio.
That is the purpose of the money, right?
One second.
Oh, please wait.
Ndi, Andi.
-Lidya. -What?
Lidya is at the door.
-Hey, Lid. -Hey.
Did you come here alone?
Yeah.
Bon.
Okay.
I can't lie to myself that I'm not a good friend.
What do you want to drink?
I'm good, thanks.
It's been a long time since we've met.
Yesterday I went to Rio's house.
I met his mom.
After that, we went to Rio's grave, we prayed...
Rio is still alive!
Lid, that's also my wish.
All of our friends and I wish for that too.
This is Rio's engagement ring.
Rio comes to me in my dreams.
It happens over and over, and it's the same dream, Ndi.
He said that I must take care of this ring.
This ring came back to me...
...not long after I heard news that Rio is gone.
I'm sure, Rio was wearing this ring while climbing.
Did Rio know about us?
Shit.
If only I went climbing with him.
It should be like that in the first place! Isn't it?
Because you used to be together in everything.
But you canceled it last minute. And now Rio is missing.
Where were you?
You are his brother, and how could you even let him climb alone!
He's missing now!
Rio is more than a business partner for me.
He is my big brother.
A brother I grew up with.
There shouldn't be a space between Rio and me.
I should have known every single thing that he's working on.
It's "Quantum Doctor". Hey.
-I'm Andi -I'm Babon.
Here's the footage.
After the search...
...Babon and I finally found out who took this video.
I'm Rana, one of Rio's team member that climbed to Merapi.
How do you know Rio, how did you meet him?
At first I met him at the hotel.
From there, I knew Rio would climb on the same day with me.
What is your first impression of Rio?
He's a nice guy.
So my friends and I asked him to climb with us.
If I'm not mistaken, you are the one...
...who took the video of the climb, aren't you?
Including the video with Rio in it.
Yeah.
At first, I showed the video only to the forum members.
But I have no idea how the video spread so quickly on the internet.
And the video that you've seen is not the whole video.
What do you mean by that?
Rio? Rio!
Fuck! Rio! Rio!
-Rio! Rio! -Rio! Rio!
-Rio! Let's go home.
No!
The footage from Rana is a prove that Rio is still alive.
So we decided to go to Jogja, which is close to Merapi.
-Where are you guys off to? Okay. -Jogja, Sir.
I realize that finding Rio is as not easy as I imagined.
Sweet boy, where are you off to?
Jogja?
Okay, okay. You better sleep then.
I'll wake you up if we get there. Okay? Nice!
Excuse me.
We need to meet Mr Wicaksono to find any clue about Rio.
-Hello, Sir. Mr Wicaksono, right? -Yes.
I'm Andi and this is my friend, Babon.
Take a seat please.
I'll just sit here.
Honey, there are guests here.
So, how is it, Sir?
Yeah, so, about your friend.
I heard the news about him.
So many people talked about him for a while here.
Yeah.
He's still young, isn't he?
Coincidentally, the head of SAR team is my friend.
They searched for him with a maximum effort.
Yeah, Sir. We understand that.
Luckily, Mr Wicaksono was willing to help us
to meet the guardian of Merapi.
Yeah, I will help you.
But I can't promise you anything.
It's okay, Sir. Thank you so much.
There it is. It matches with the weather now.
Drinking hot tea in a cold weather.
-Sorry to bother you. -It's okay. All right.
-Do we still have the tempeh? -We ran out.
All right, then.
-Is the road getting hard to pass, Sir? -Yes, it is.
-Bon, let's go. -What?
Okay, wait.
Peace be unto you. Excuse me, Miss.
Peace be unto you, Sir. How are you?
Thank God, we're all good, Miss.
Excuse me, is your Grandfather here?
Yes, he is. Please wait for a moment.
Ndi, Ndi, look at this.
Bon, I told you not to say anything, come here, Bon.
Excuse me, Sir.
Excuse me, we apologize for coming here this late.
I brought these guys from Jakarta
just to meet you.
Good evening, Sir.
My friend and I are here because we need your help.
We are looking for our friend, maybe you can help us.
When will you and your friend be going home?
When will you guys go home?
Coincidentally, we just arrived from Jakarta.
And we're trying to search for our friend in Merapi.
Your friend doesn't want to come home.
-What does that even mean, Miss? -Enough.
Do you know my friend?
-Enough, enough! -Has he been here before?
It's already late.
-You guys better go home, now! -Wait a minute, Ndi.
-Just go home! -Hold on, Sir.
-He knows where Rio is. -Enough.
-Sir, help us, please! -Get in the car!
Get in! Now!
-You heard what the Guardian said? -Yes, I did.
He knows where Rio is.
Sir, we rented a hostel, why don't you bring us there instead.
Go home! Now!
We haven't found our friend yet, Sir. We can't go home now.
-We just want to find our friend, Sir. -What the hell!
Don't you guys understand?
What do you mean? You heard what he said before, Sir!
The Guardian knows where Rio is.
He's taking our bags, Ndi.
What? Sir! Mr Wicaksono.
Andi! Babon.
Listen!
You are all very rude! Did you hear what he said?
Yes, we heard that, we know.
-We just wanna know where Rio is. -Okay, so listen now!
Your friend doesn't want to go home!
-How come he doesn't want to? -Now you guys go home! Go home now!
-We need an explanation of where Rio is. -The explanation is "you guys go home!"
-Mr Wicaksono! You must be responsible. -It's enough, Andi.
Fuck!
How dare he leave us just like that.
He brought us to the middle of nowhere.
We better find the police.
Relax. Just relax.
Shit!
So, about our talk with the Guardian.
Before we got kicked out that night.
The Guardian said that our friend, Rio,
doesn't want to go home from Merapi.
From his statement,
we conclude that our friend is still alive.
Based on what the Guardian said.
So, here's the thing...
First things first,
Merapi can't be climbed carelessly.
You know why?
Because it's dangerous, it's closed for now.
It can erupt at any time.
Furthermore, if you want to climb Merapi.
You need to have a permission from the villagers there.
Those who know everything about Merapi.
That's it. Thank you.
So what will we do?
I don't have any idea, the police also can't help at all.
-So, we need to wait. -But...
-But the Guardian said that... -Hear this.
Guys, I'm sure that you guys love your friend.
But, I suggest you need to respect
what the villagers believe, okay?
Stop the investigation.
For now, it's you against Merapi.
Before you guys get hurt, stop it.
Got it? Thank you.
I'm sure, that guy is just not right.
If only we could meet someone that is right,
we will find Rio, Bon.
Wait, I'll go ask for a towel. Excuse me.
Why do you ask for a towel?
You said that we will only stay for a night.
That's what I want, but it's weekend, the other hostel might be full, Bon.
Hey, but that doesn't mean...
-...we can stay in a place like this. -Excuse me.
There's no one there.
Excuse me. I need a towel.
What the fuck?
This place is fucking gross.
-What? -They must have never cleaned this place.
Look here! Look! Do you wanna stay in a place like this?
Behind you!
Where is it?
-I swear to God I saw a girl sitting here. -What the hell, Bon!
Ndi! Let's get out of this shitty hostel.
-What is it? -Look there!
What are you talking about, Bon?
-I saw a girl there. -Where is it?
I swear I saw worms, and the bride ghost. And I recorded everything.
But when it's time to show it to Andi...
...the footage is gone, well, maybe my camera broke?
Or maybe it's some supernatural encounter that I can't explain.
Hey!
So noisy!
Gross, smelly hostel, it's hard to get a good sleep.
Silence please!
Can't you? Okay, good.
Ndi.
What happened to you?
You look so tired.
Andi, huh, you ignore me. Okay then.
Andi...
Rio?
Rio!
Rio, Rio!
Rio!
Go Away!
Excuse me.
My father can't help you.
Why is that, Miss?
This is not what my father wants.
It's Merapi.
Hey, Bro.
Rio?
Go home!
I'm willing to help. How's that?
Do you know the route to the forbidden forest?
Of course I know.
Babe, babe, babe!
Babe, help! Babe, help!
Babe!
