The film “Forbidden Night” tells the story of Mawar, an 18 year old girl who postpones her dream of becoming a journalist in order to look after her mother (Sarimah) with the help of her half-brother, Safar.

However, Mawar’s life changes after a sudden death in her family causes a mysterious creature to disturb her, forcing Mawar to investigate the secret behind the tragedy.

At the same time, his father, Omar, was busy with a political campaign to overthrow his party leader, Haji Wahid.

The deeper Mawar investigates, the more she is faced with terrifying paranormal events that her family members often take for granted.
