Merah Putih: One for All

Plot

In a quiet village eagerly awaiting Indonesian Independence Day, a group of children are chosen to be the "Tim Merah Putih" to guard the sacred flag, the flag that is always flown during the annual August 17th ceremony. However, three days before the ceremony, the flag goes missing. Eight children from various cultural backgrounds—Betawi, Papua, Medan, Tegal, Central Java, Makassar, Manado, and Chinese—unite in a heroic mission: to save the mysteriously missing sacred red and white flag.
