Ngeri Sedap (Imajinari)

JAKARTA - There is something different from today's Google main page. When we opened the main page, there was an image of Lake Toba from North Sumatra.

Today's doodle highlights Lake Toba as the world's largest crater lake and is one of the deepest lakes in the world. Google made Lake Toba a doodle today because right in 2020, Lake Toba was designated as UNESCO's Global Geopark.

The beauty of Lake Toba is also seen in a number of works of art, one of which is film. Many Indonesian films use Lake Toba as a background or background for Indonesian films.

One of the films, Ngeri-Ngeri Sedap, even became Indonesia's representative to compete at the Academy Awards for the Best International Feature Film category.

Here are 5 Indonesian films that use Lake Toba as the background for the story:

The film, starring Vino G. Bastian and Marsha Timothy, is a family romance film that also takes Lake Toba as a place to stand. The film tells the story of Ronggur (Vino G. Bastian) who has a conflict with his father.

Ronggur then fell in love with Andini (Marsha Timothy) who turned out to be a different belief and came from the Javanese tribe. Ronggur who wanted to prove his father was wrong, chose to become a drug mafia and snatched Andini from his parents. Toba Dreams managed to get various awards when it was released in theaters.

The 2016 film stars a number of well-known actresses and singers, including Yuki Kato, Febby Rastanty, Sivia Azizah, Vebby Palwinta, Rizky Febian, Fachri Muhammad, Elma Theana, and others.

This family-themed film chose Lake Toba as one of the shooting locations. Cahaya Cinta Pesantren tells the story of a fisherman named Shila (Yuki Kato) who wants to continue his education to his favorite high school but does not qualify due to limited costs. Shila starts her journey as a student who is also adapted from a novel of the same name.

Batak's culture cannot be separated from Lake Toba in North Sumatra. The film Pariban: Idol from Java tells the story of a Batak man named Moan (Ganindra Bimo) who is successful in Jakarta but is under pressure from his mother to get married.

The mother then asked Moan to meet her pariban. This pariban is a cousin who can be married in the Batak custom. Moan was met with his plenary, Uli Silalahi (Atiqah Hasiholan) who turned out to be beautiful and made Moan fall in love. However, now Moan has to fight because Uli is also liked by other men.

The beauty of Lake Toba is able to create romantic moments in the film. Apart from Pariban, the film Nariti: Lake Toba romance also highlighted the romance between Jefrey (Bastian Steel) and Nariti (Zoe Jackson) directed by Deden Bagaskara.

Jefrey returned to his hometown and met Nariti at his new school. Slowly, Jefrey managed to conquer Nariti until their relationship was prohibited by Nariti's mother because she thought Jefrey was different from the Nariti family.

The film Ngeri-Ngeri Sedap won nominations and trophies in the same year. Directed by Bene Dion, this film tells the story of Pak Domu (Arswendy Beningswara) and Mak Domu (Tika Panggabean) who miss their three children who are currently monitoring their son, Sarma (Gita Bhebhita) living with them.

Their three children's relationship is also not good with Pak Domu. One day, Mak Domu designed a scenario so that his three sons would return home for them. Instead of returning peacefully, their relationship increasingly encounters conflict for Pak Domu's family.
