The movie takes place in a village near the Borobudur Temple in the Central Java. The village people make their living by digging up stones and carving them. Amat (Adadiri Tanpalang), a ten-year-old boy is an intelligent and mature boy who helps his mute father with stone carving. One day, his teacher requests him to participate in a stone carving competition. He never finishes it; instead his father does it for him. He wins but he returns the prize to the school because he felt that he doesn’t deserve it. He claims that his father is the one who finished the statue for competition for him. While his friend, Siti (Acintyaswati Widianing) is the one who sent the stone carving to the competition.
Directed by Arswendo Atmowiloto, Anak-anak Borobudur leans on a strong ensemble — Nai Djenar Maesa Ayu, Adadiri Tanpalang, Acintyaswati Widianing — 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 drama titles of 2007.
