SYNOPSIS:

Love without estuary itself tells of a very simple story, namely a well-off person who is disgusted by hedoism and then mingles with street children until he is involved in same-sex love, I want to make love without reason, Kresna the main character loves the same sex because he is comfortable being like that, not because of past traumas such as having been molested or so on, but because he really wants to be himself, Kresna is also not a transgender or at least a woman in spirit, he is a male man who is admired, once again he wants to be himself .

As told by Kresna when he was young, he was educated at Harvard University by his father who was the chairman of the Batam Regional Parliament, with the bright and rich aspects of the area, it was certainly easy for his father to make as much money as possible from the area, his father Husman was repeatedly involved in large tenders. and of course he also saved a few percent of the proceeds from the tender, the money from corruption was then used as a fee to send Kresna to school, Kresna, who has grown up since childhood, always wonders where all the luxuries his father gave him, why Kresna's life seems so easy, while on television he saw many people in trouble until finally Kresna knew that his father often ate tender money.

But it's not Kresna if he doesn't take advantage of this, you could say that Kresna's character is actually a bit cunning here, he is descending from his father's nature, Kresna pretends not to know that all this time the money for his education is the result of corruption, he doesn't even tell about it. to his mother or other siblings, he intends to study hard with the money from his father's corruption so that one day he can eradicate corruption, it's ironic that crime will be eradicated with bad things, after studying at Harvard Kresna already understands political science well, he understands very well how to pretend and win other people's hearts, 2 years later he is married to Lara, the name of Lara's character is taken from Javanese which means painful, because Krishna does not at all love the girl chosen by his father who was formerly Husman's father's mistress. , Husman's real goal of pairing Lara with Kresna is so that Lara can live in same house and at any time. If the house is quiet, Husman and Lara can have sex like husband and wife as they please.

From their marriage, Eka was born, but here later the audience is told to guess that Eka is actually the result of Lara's relationship with Krishna or Lara and Husman, then 7 years later Eka grows up to be a boy who even though his face is similar to Krishna but is similar to Husman, besides that, actually between Krishna and Husman had a somewhat similar face because they were father and son. here let the audience guess who Eka's child really is, Kresna actually knows the relationship between Husman and Lara but because he respects his father, Krishna doesn't dare to do anything, then one day Khresna's life really changes.

On a sunny Sunday morning when Husman left with the excuse of escorting Lara to check the womb of Kresna and Lara's second child, even though Lara and Husman's goal was to have sex at the hotel, Kresna's door was banged on several street children with an appearance that could be said to be uncomfortable, Kresna, who has always received negative views about street children, was initially reluctant to open the door, but after a heartbreaking cry for help, they were finally allowed to enter by Kresna.

Then they chat and one by one the street children tell their problems, there is Rudi who when he was a child for some reason his house was burned down, but he believes it was the act of a member of the government because previously the land on which Rudi's house was built was land owned by the government, Rudi's father and mother. died in the fire. Then there is Acong, a Chinese ethnicity, at first his father was the deputy head of the DPD, but because of his father's policy which was considered to be cornering people who intended to carry out rotten plans, his father was kicked from the DPD deputy chair on the pretext of corruption, not only that all of his father's assets were confiscated Acong and his father, who have lived together since childhood because their mother had died from illness, then experienced the harshness of life on the streets until one day her father died of a heart attack because he was not strong enough to experience bitterness, Acong lived alone on the street.

Then there is another one, namely Yatim Piatu, she is named Yatim Piatu because she does not know who his real father and mother are, who named with that name are some homeless people and street people who volunteer to care Yatim Piatu, there have been rumors that Piatu is the daughter of an official who has an affair with a famous dangdut singer, Yatim Piatu once came to the house of someone her father thought she was getting, but the treatment she got was kicked and expelled in a very inhuman way.

Hearing their story, Krishna shed tears, because all this time he had lived from the suffering of others because his father was a corrupt official and he seemed to ignore his father's crimes even though Krishna had good intentions, namely to go to school with the proceeds of corruption in order to eradicate corruption. And Now Kresna has the intention to eradicate other arbitrariness, then the reason why the three street children ask for help is because they are the target of the apparatus' operation to raid street children. Kresna, who so far only knows that the apparatus works for order, is starting to know the rottenness of some of the officers .

According to the confession of the three street children, every time they were arrested, several security guards blackmailed them with an amount of money that could not be fulfilled by the homeless and street children, sometimes they asked for 70 to 100 thousand rupiahs, but if they did not give the officers money. will beat them on the pretext that they are fighting the authorities, because of that Kresna is getting more resentful with the government, he decides to go with the 3 street children. Kresna decides to be homeless, because by being homeless he feels comfortable, because at least he does not live by riding misery other people.

Every night Kresna spends his time sleeping on the street, Kresna can't step among arbitrary people anymore, a few months of living on the street Kresna meets Imron, a street child who feels trapped in a male body, but Imron never dress up like a transvestites

and trying to enter the world of prostitution because he knows it is a sin, Imron just wants a man to pay attention to him sincerely and finally after some time knowing Kresna he feels that Kresna will be his companion one day and according to Imron's expectations, Kresna, who felt comfortable with their friendship finally said that he wanted to be Imron's life companion throughout his life, once again Kresna wanted to date the same sex just because he was comfortable being himself, Kresna and Imron also lived like lovers.

The loss of Kresna for 3 months made Husman angry and searched desperately for Kresna, with fake tears in front of the media, Husman said he needed his son because he loved him so much, but that was not what made Husman so hard to find his child, the reason was because Kresna is projected to become his successor in the government, Husman really wants to create a government dynasty, that's why Husman, who has a stingy and greedy nature, wants to send his son to politics far away abroad. Eka, the grandson, had planned long ago to be admitted to the best and number one schools, whatever Husman will do so that the grandson can go to the best school even with a bribe.

Husman will never care whether his children or grandchildren are smart or not. What matters to him is that money is all right, and of course Husman intends to take advantage of his children and grandchildren someday if they really succeed, a long-term plan for Husman that he has. He had planned since he was young, while Kresna, who realized that he was being sought hiding from one place to another, asked for protection even though it was not uncommon for thugs to take advantage of this by extorting Kresna, but Kresna did not mind this because Kresna knew the thugs. extorting because they are forced to because they need to eat, unlike officials who take people's money even though their stomachs are full of food.

Kresna together with Imron intend to flee to Jakarta by riding a truck belonging to Dari, a truck driver who looks kindhearted but is actually very sneaky. the reason the truck was not enough to take the load anymore, Dari then promised to pick up Imron, because of the friendly and honest nature shown by Dari so far, Kresna and Imron agreed without the slightest suspicion.

Dari departed with Kresna while Imron was told to wait on the spot, by repeatedly looking at the clock presented by Kresna, Imron was waiting, on the way to the port Kresna wrote about all his grievances in an old note of his, in that note. he wrote his disgust at the government, he wrote everything he knew including the fate of his friends who became street children and why they became street children, not forgetting he also wrote down the rottenness of his father, on the note Kresna also wrote down his hopes and dreams, Imron, Kresna and his friends, but Kresna never realized that it was his last day in the world, Kresna was pushed out by Dari when the truck was driving at fast speed on the highway, as a result, besides falling from the truck, Kresna's body was run over by several passing cars, Kresna died instantly. Dari fled with the valuable property and a lot of money belonging to Kresna.

Kresna's only luck might be that his note fell with him and there were residents who found Kresna's note and reported it to the police, the police promised to thoroughly investigate whoever was written on the note if they had committed an offense, including thoroughly examining the corruption that was committed by Husman, at another place Lara who got the news that her husband died in bad way pathetic did not feel sad at all, even with Kresna's death it would be easier for Lara to get treasure from Husman, She calmly went to her husband's crime scene, Lara did not know that she and Husman were in Kresna's records and now it is in the black book of the police and the KPK, naturally Lara also approached the prison bars, while Husman had already been arrested in his office, where in his study was also found a suitcase full of counterfeit bills.

The film ends with Imron bumping into Lara at a place where Imron is waiting for Kresna, Imron and Lara with each other not knowing that they have a special relationship with Kresna, even though Imron's relationship with Krishna is more special. Imron bumped into Lara when she repeatedly glanced at Kresna's gift which was actually going to give Kresna to Lara, Imron and Lara who led Eka to go in opposite directions, they were getting away from each other, and when they got further away I hope that the accompanying song as well as the ending song of the film which is still a synopsis is the song Mata Berdebu by Sore, where the song are truly reflects Kresna's heart.
