A Grandpa's Uniform and the Other Things of Fear

The Gejog mythology has been flourished mostly among amongst the Javanese. This myth is believed as the spirit army of Nyai Roro Kidul, searching for tumbal, or victims, to be turned into spirits of the abdi dalem. Dipa, a 10-year-old child who lives in one of the villages in Java, is always overshadowed by the appearance of Gejog itself. Dipa is curious with how the spirit army looks like.

To pay off his loan debt, Togog, a casual laborer, is squeezed by circumstances and is forced to fish in a river filled with the remains of bodies that have drifted away. According to myth, fishing at the place of the dead will bring good luck. But unfortunately it wasn't luck that Togog got, it was actually a disaster that he created himself.

The news of death is a part of the trade for Harjo, an old man who lives by selling coffins. One issue stalled his long preparation for his own demise, which actually would lead him to the start of another journey.
