1997 Jakarta, Indonesia. Sari is an aspiring singer hoping to achieve her dreams of stardom through her karaoke performances at her best friend Fina's parties. One of her song numbers leads to a chance encounter with Lisa, a determined journalist, and the two become a hot item in Jakartas lesbian party scene. But when Sari is forced to flee from the after effects of Suharto's dictatorship, the two must adapt their love to conform to the pressures of survival and migration. Eighteen years later, Saris daughter Diah must navigate the residual trauma of Saris past as it is projected onto her own relationship with her girlfriend, Melli.
