Synopsis
(title translation: Vow of the Bitter Tongue)
After defeating Rie Tabing, Si Pahit Lidah (The Bitter Tongue) becomes a hermit and meditates. Meanwhile, Rie Tabing complains to his teacher, Si Mata Empat (The Four Eyed) but the latter scolds him for being greedy and deceitful. After finishing his long meditation, Si Pahit Lidah sees, from afar, the child he has with a heavenly maiden that is being taken care of by the grandmother. He secretly gives the child, Dirut, a deer as a gift. The mother secretly visits Dirut to help him catch fish so that he can sell them. Pahit Lidah then continues his journey to fight for justice. Due to this, he has to fight again with Rie Tabing, and this time he kills him. When he hears this, Si Mata Empat still considers his student to be the guilty one. Later, Pahit Lidah tries to help increase the prosperity of a village by suggesting that they dam a river. The elders in the village are against this suggestion. Cunningly, they try to get Pahit Lidah and Mata Empat to fight each other by organising a party. Both are attracted to a King’s daughter and this leads to a duel but they are evenly matched. Mata Empat then cheats, causing Pahit Lidah to die. Mata Empat’s greed also leads to his death as he tries to take Pahit Lidah’s power. Dirut witnesses this duel and tells his mother afterward. The film showcases South Sumatra culture and many dances and unique locations in the area are featured. The film also features a "dangdut" song sung by the "heavenly maiden" Camelia Malik, a well-known dangdut singer nicknamed the Diva Dangdut Jaipong.
