Plot
Moko lives with his sister Agnes’s family, which consists of Agnes, her husband Atmo, their two children Woko and Nina, and Atmo’s nephew, Rivano—better known as Ano. During Moko’s final thesis defense, his girlfriend Maurin receives an urgent call from the family: Atmo and Agnes have been rushed to the hospital. Atmo dies of a heart condition, while Agnes passes away shortly after giving birth to their third daughter, Ima.
Suddenly, Moko finds himself the de facto head of the household. He puts aside his plans to pursue a master's degree abroad with Maurin in order to care for his nieces, nephew, and newborn baby. His older sister Osa, who lives in Australia with her husband Eka, calls to inform him that they won’t be returning to Indonesia anytime soon, as Eka can’t leave his job.
Moko briefly lands a job as an architect, but struggles to balance work and childcare. His responsibilities at home cause him to be late for an important client meeting, and he is eventually let go. Realizing he’s holding Maurin back, he ends their relationship. Just as he’s adjusting to his new reality, one of his former piano teachers asks him to take in her daughter, Gadis, she goes with Ais. Moko accepts, adding yet another member to his already growing household.
Two years pass. Life starts to settle down, and Ima is now old enough to need less constant supervision. Moko begins applying for full-time jobs again, and coincidentally, one of the companies he interviews with is where Maurin now works. She notices him during the interview process and enthusiastically recommends him to her boss, Mr. Sam.
As they reconnect, Moko shares updates about his family: Nina, who clashed with him after a painful breakup; Woko, who works as an online motorcycle driver to support his siblings, shelving his dream of studying law; Ano, who aspires to become an architect like Moko; and Ais, the newest member of the family.
Preparing for a key presentation for the job, Maurin offers to lend Moko her MacBook Pro, knowing the design software at the firm is demanding. Moko declines, saying he plans to buy a used laptop. However, those plans are derailed when Ano suddenly falls ill and is diagnosed with appendicitis. With their national health insurance (BPJS) inactive, Moko has to use his laptop savings to cover the hospital bills.
He tries to prepare the presentation on his old laptop, but it keeps crashing. That night, Maurin shows up with her laptop and stays overnight to help care for the still-recovering Ano while Moko works on the project. Thanks to her support, he delivers a successful presentation and lands the job. He comes home that evening with martabak to celebrate—only to find that Osa and Eka have returned from Australia.
The family later takes a short vacation to a resort owned by one of Moko’s clients. There, Erna—a resort employee—recognizes Ais and turns out to be the biological sister of Mr. Nanang, Ais’s former guardian. Eka suggests that Erna take over caring for Ais.
Moko is then assigned to a project in Anyer, which means being away from his family for a while. While he’s gone, Eka frequently calls asking for money for household expenses, while Moko finds it increasingly difficult to reach his nieces and nephews. When the project wraps up, Moko is asked to present it to the client. However, a disagreement with the resort owner leads to Moko being removed from the meeting and reprimanded by Mr. Sam.
Sensing something is wrong back home, Moko decides to return. On his way, he visits Ais and learns the truth: since Moko left, Woko, Nina, and Ano have all been working to keep the household running. Moko is stunned and immediately picks each of them up from their respective jobs.
Back at home, he finds out that Eka has been missing for two months after falling victim to an investment scam. Moko gathers the kids in the living room and insists they stop working—he wants to be the sole provider for the family. However, one by one, they speak up, expressing their desire to contribute and not be a burden.
Maurin steps in to share her perspective. She agrees with Moko’s sentiment that no one in the family is a burden, but disagrees with his belief that he must carry everything alone. She admits she never stopped fighting for a future with him and reminds the family that it’s okay—even necessary—for everyone to support one another.
In the end, Moko and his nieces and nephews embrace—reaffirming their love and commitment to face life’s challenges together.
Moko reflects on the early days of moving into the house. Over time, Osa begins to reconnect with her family, and their relationships grow warmer. One day, Moko watches his family gathered around the dinner table, laughing together—and realizes that, despite everything, they’re home.
