A Brother and 7 Siblings
A Brother and 7 Siblings (Indonesian: 1 Kakak 7 Ponakan) is a 2024 drama film written and directed by Yandy Laurens, based on 1996 sinetron of the same name (A Sister and 7 Siblings) by Arswendo Atmowiloto. The film stars Chicco Kurniawan as a man who suddenly has to take care of his nieces and nephews after the death of his older sister.
The film had its world premiere as the closing film of 19th Jogja-NETPAC Asian Film Festival on 7 December 2024. It was theatrically released in Indonesia on 23 January 2025.
Moko lives with his sister Agnes’s family, which consists of Agnes, her husband Atmo, their two children Woko and Nina, and Atmo’s nephew, Rivano—better known as Ano. During Moko’s final thesis defense, his girlfriend Maurin receives an urgent call from the family: Atmo and Agnes have been rushed to the hospital. Atmo dies of a heart condition, while Agnes passes away shortly after giving birth to their third daughter, Ima.
Suddenly, Moko finds himself the de facto head of the household. He puts aside his plans to pursue a master's degree abroad with Maurin in order to care for his nieces, nephew, and newborn baby. His older sister Osa, who lives in Australia with her husband Eka, calls to inform him that they won’t be returning to Indonesia anytime soon, as Eka can’t leave his job.
Moko briefly lands a job as an architect, but struggles to balance work and childcare. His responsibilities at home cause him to be late for an important client meeting, and he is eventually let go. Realizing he’s holding Maurin back, he ends their relationship. Just as he’s adjusting to his new reality, his childhood piano teacher Nanang asks him to take in his daughter, Gadis, she goes with Ais. Moko accepts, adding yet another member to his already growing household.
Two years pass. Life starts to settle down, and Ima is now old enough to need less constant supervision. Moko begins applying for full-time jobs again, and coincidentally, one of the companies he interviews with is where Maurin now works. She notices him during the interview process and enthusiastically recommends him to her boss, Mr. Sam.
As they reconnect, Moko shares updates about his family: Nina, who clashed with him after a painful breakup; Woko, who works as an online motorcycle driver to support his siblings, shelving his dream of studying law; Ano, who aspires to become an architect like Moko; and Ais, the newest member of the family.
Preparing for a key presentation for the job, Maurin offers to lend Moko her MacBook Pro, knowing the design software at the firm is demanding. Moko declines, saying he plans to buy a used laptop. However, those plans are derailed when Ano suddenly falls ill and is diagnosed with appendicitis. With their national health insurance (BPJS) inactive, Moko has to use his laptop savings to cover the hospital bills.
