JAKARTA - The film Jagat Salahan offers a klenik atmosphere that is touched by fantasy and implies some Javanese taboos which if ignored are said to be disastrous.

Jagati Bahanto told about Sukmo's death (Kiki Narendra) suddenly and suspiciously. Raga (Ari Irham), the son of Sukmo, traces his life which is full of mystical things. Including the fact that he is a descendant of the world balancer as well as the Human Gods who hold the 7th Aditya. He had to dream of becoming a famous band's son to perpetuate his family's traditions.

Assisted by his uncle, Paklik Jaya (Oka Antara), Raga tries to control her strength and meets the spirits who still have a relationship with her on the way; Noni (Cinta Laura), Kunti (Sheila Dara) and Genderuwo (Ganindra Bimo).

The following are the five taboos in Java that are implied in the film Jagat Candidate, quoted from the release of Visinema Pictures.

Ora Rukun Marang Wong Tuo (not in harmony with parents) Humbungan Raga (Ari Irham) with his father, Sukmo (Kiki Narendra) is described as full of tension and not harmonious. Both have fatal communication problems that have created a cold war for years. Referring to one of the myths in Java, if the child ignores the bad conditions with his parents, he has the opportunity to get into trouble in the future.

Mangan Ndisiki Wong Tuo (eat ahead of the parents) Still around the relationship between Raga and his father, the Javanese are also very concerned about ethics and even reaching the kitchen realm. They believe eating ahead of the parents also has its own consequences.

Out of the house late at night, a fine creature was kidnapped. In the film Jagat Semati, Raga often returns home late at night after being busy practicing the band. According to the previous grandfather's grandmother's taboo, roaming through Maghrib can be kidnapped by fine creatures. In the film Jagat Selamat, Raga is followed by one of the demonstrators near where she lives, with the shooting location in Kaliangkrik.

Crows of bad signs Javanese people believe that sparrows roaming around the house are a bad sign. In addition, sparrows of sparrows also indicate the same thing, to be precise, a sign of the immediate arrival of sad news. Although not explicit, the film "Keeping an eye" tucked various signs before bad things arrived.

Cycling at night can invite kuntilanakTokoh Kuntilanak (Sheila Dara) as one of the spirits that plays an important role in the story of Jagat Pusat. The difference is, without death, Raga already has her own attachment to Kunti which is related to their past. This is often associated as a advice for someone not to cause a commotion at night.
