Sacred Gem

When he was killed by a dagger he made himself for seven years, Empu Bharata (BZ Kadaryono) cast a curse on the killer, Untung Pararean (Arthur Tobing), his own student. Throughout his life, Untung will be miserable and killed by a keris he made himself. At first, Untung lived happily, got a beautiful wife, Sri Kemuning (Wieke Widowati), the king's niece, for saving him from robbers. Lucky to be commander in chief. Then the curse started running. His wife is crooked. As a result, Untung is sickly and almost insane. Luckily there was a kyai who suddenly came and helped him. Somehow, his wife and children are at the place of Empu Barata's older brother, the Masked Face Warrior (Nizar Zulmi), who had mutilated Untung's face. At that time the cleric came again to help. Untung then looked for his wife and child with a black veil to cover his disfigured face. Here comes Wiro Sableng (Tony Hidayat), who has his own business.

The Independence Pioneers

The arrest of Haji Jalaluddin during his sermon leaves a strong impression on the hearts of Hamid and Halimah, his followers. Halimah is a wife who is taken for granted by her husband who is pro-Dutch. Hamid is the son of a rich merchant who falls into poverty after being branded as a rebel. His mother takes him to Padang to be raised by the family of Haji Jakfar, who has a daughter, Zainab. Hamid then studies at Padang Panjang and meets old friends, Fakhrudin and Zainudin. Hamid and Fakhrudin have more similar views with their teacher, while Zainudin is more radical. The latter organises a rebellion and fails. The Dutch keeps arresting people. Hamid, disappointed by Zainab’s marriage to someone else, sails to Mecca. Halimah is left to organise the fight for freedom but in the end, is also captured by the Dutch. The film’s message is that a physical fight for freedom, without being based on religious morality, will become meaningless.
