One Two Jaga

# English Translation The story revolves around what happens behind the scenes of the Royal Malaysian Police force, exposing the dark side of certain officers who are willing to betray their trust by accepting bribes and becoming entangled in criminal activities. An Indonesian immigrant, Sugiman (Iman), is a single father plagued by nightmares filled with violence and blood. His son Joko, who doesn't listen, spends too much time with the unreliable Adi and his sister Sumiati runs away from her job as a housemaid because she wants to return to Indonesia. Sugiman asks for help from his employer, Sarip, a construction company boss and father to Adi, to arrange for his sister to board an illegal boat, but there is a price to be paid. At the same time, he must protect Sumiati from the police by hiding her in a cheap hotel. The hotel room next to his is rented by Rico, a Filipino fixer who is constantly pressured to send money to his mother.

Directed by Nam Ron (Sahili Abdan), One Two Jaga leans on a strong ensemble — Zahiril Adzim, Rosdeen Suboh, Ario Bayu — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.

The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about screen titles of 2018.
