Horror meets Malaysian culture in Indera, inspired by the real-life standoff between the government’s police forces and villagers deep in rural Malaysia, where spirits are as dangerous as weapons.
Watch our exclusive trailer for the supernatural folk horror film below ahead of its VOD release on October 31 via Film Movement.
Set against the backdrop of the Memali Incident of 1985, Indera centers on Joe, a handyman doing his best to raise his young, non-verbal daughter Sofia in the wake of his wife’s tragic death.
Penniless and evicted, he takes on the position of caretaker for an older Javanese woman, who claims she can help Sophia speak again. But as her unorthodox treatment progresses, Joe and Sophia begin experiencing terrifying visions that threaten their grip on reality.
Woo Ming Jin (KL Zombi) directs from a script he co-wrote with Deo Mahameru and Muzzamer Rahman.
Shaheizy Sam, Samara Kenzo, Azira Shafinaz, and Adlin Aman Ramlie star.
Indera is presented in its native Malay with English subtitles.
