HASDUK BERPOLA (PATTERNED NECKERCHIEF)
a proof of grandson's love to his grandfather
by : Ikra Wiratama Hendra, Boy Scout
Trailer of “HASDUK BERPOLA” is started with the arrival of Budi (starred by Bangkit Prasetyo) in a school which is holding a semaphore lesson for their scout member. Budi, always beaten by Kemal his rival. He lost at everything academic, swimming, nor stealing his crush hearts. Now he knows that Kemal's ability is formed by his Scouting activity that Kemal joined. Then Budi realized that if he join Scout, he will be as good as Kemal even more than him.
In his first Scouting activity, Budi only worn a napkin and rubber band as his woggle. It makes him ashamed by his friends and his scout leader. In the next meeting they both fight, like fighter meet his opponent in the field.
Unfortunately his motivation to join scout is interrupted with a rule that his scout leader make that everyone that joins scout have to use the proper uniform and attribute including scout neckerchief. As a fatherless kid, he cannot afford a neckerchief that cost IDR 17,500. He do anything to get that amount of money including being porters in a traditional market. Unfortunately all of his hardwork only make him IDR 15,000 and of course it cannot afford a scout neckerchief.
