Watch the official trailer of Sorop here.
MD Pictures closes the year 2024 with a horror film by director Upi, titled Sorop. Another viral thread by Simple Man has been adapted into a feature film, following the extraordinary success of KKN di Desa Penari and Sewu Dino in terms of audience numbers. Sorop is scheduled to be released in Indonesian cinemas starting December 19, 2024.
Sorop tells the story of two siblings, Hanif (Hana Malasan) and Isti (Yasamin Jasem), who suddenly move into a haunted house with a terror that constantly haunts them.
Their story begins when their aunt asks them to return to their hometown and take care of their childhood home. At first, Hanif and Isti refused the request because the house was still occupied by their uncle and his wife. However, because their uncle was seriously ill and in critical condition, they eventually returned home.
Hanif and Isti were shocked by the death of their uncle, which happened right before their eyes. After the uncle’s death, mystical terror began to occur and haunt the house. They could even see their deceased uncle come back to life. On the other hand, they also discovered their aunt’s strange habit of often eating graveyard soil.
Various abnormal events they experienced made the two siblings remember what happened in their childhood. Finally, Hanif and Isti must unveil the mystery related to their past.
What is in that house? What did their uncle do during his lifetime? All the answers are revealed in the film Sorop.
MD Pictures is also collaborating with Barunson E&A, the production company behind the Oscar-winning film Parasite, for the international sales of the film Sorop, which will be launched at the Asian Contents & Film Market (ACFM) in Busan.
