Pencuri Rumah Imam

Overview

The story of Adli, a thief who disguises himself as a wealthy man and comes to a village to escape being pursued by the authorities. In his attempt to hide his identity, he manages to gain the trust of Tok Imam Saleh, who at the time is facing a crisis of credibility as the leader of the surau (prayer hall). By expressing a desire to deepen his knowledge of religion, Adli appears to be seeking a “spiritual transformation,” something that Tok Imam warmly welcomes. However, not everyone is easily deceived. Khadijah, Tok Imam’s daughter, begins to suspect Adli’s true intentions.
