Fatmawati started to live her new life as Mieke, a name of her idol Mieke Wijaya. As time goes by, Fatmawati gets the opportunity to realize her dream to become a singer, something she couldn't do back then. Her unique, old-fashioned speech and fashion style, conquers the heart of three men: music producer Alan, her own grandson, and Hamzah who has been in love with her 50 years ago. The latter has a late wife and living daughter, who constantly shows irritation at her father's caring attitude towards Fatmawati.
Throughout living as Mieke, Fatmawati is haunted by the fear that her legacy will be lost. Meanwhile, she learns that bleeding will cause her real skin to be exposed.

According to film observer Shandy Gasella, "this remake is not as sitcom as the original film by Hwang Dong-Hyuk. The tone of the film is soft and happier, I like the grading. There are many additions of scenes of laughter, making this movie feel 'the same but different'." However, this film does not improvise much from the original film, and even though Fatma admires Mieke Wijaya, young Fatma's makeup is unlike Wijaya's. [3] According to Jodhi Yudono from Kompas , Sweet 20 managed to be a family drama film as well as romantic comedy that is thick with the colours of Indonesia, both in settings, such as putting the atmosphere of Lebaran and conflict between children- and parents-in-law, and jokes throughout the film. This film also mixes senior film stars with recent actors, creating a nostalgic nuance. [13]
