Plot
The Womb tells the story of Wulan, a supermarket employee whose boyfriend abandoned her during her pregnancy. Desperate Wulan later met Eva and Agus Santoso, who wanted to adopt her child and offered her to live at their house. While living in the house, Wulan slowly began to uncover the hidden intentions of the Santoso Family.[6]
Inspiration
The Womb story is inspired from the Javanese traditional ritual named Rebo Wekasan or Rabu Pungkasan. Based on Javanese culture, Rebo Wekasan is the last Wednesday of Safar that brings bad luck for people. Thus, a particular ceremony must be performed to avoid the omen.
