Plot

Anissa (Revalina S. Temat) comes from patriarchal society revolving around kyais (religious leaders) and religious boarding schools. From childhood, Anissa has always been treated unfairly due to her gender. The only person who treats her right is her uncle, Khudori who encourages her and shows her that there is a different world outside where men are not viewed as superior and women are treated more equally. Anissa’s love for Khudori (Oka Antara), her uncle, went unanswered as Khudori still is closely related with her family despite not being a blood relative Khudori represses his feeling and goes to Cairo to continue his education.

Khudori has always encouraged Anissa to continue her studies, however, Anissa’s father refuses, instead marrying her off to Samsudin (Reza Rahadian). As her world falls apart, Anissa finds out that Khudori has returned from Cairo. Khudori cannot do more than embrace and comfort her, just like any uncle to a niece. Unfortunately, Samsudin finds them together, a slander that changes everything. The incident causes the death of Anissa’s father.

After continuing her education, she finds that life outside religious boarding school has helped broaden her horizons. Eventually, her path crosses again with Khudori. This time, they decide to marry, even though their marriage takes them farther from their families. In the end, Anissa realises that asking for forgiveness is not a sign that she had done something wrong. In asking for forgiveness, Anissa promises that she will always endeavour to be a good Muslim woman, just like what her father and mother would have wanted.
