Joko supports his family but faces humiliation when forced to carry city notables on his back, leading to a struggle between dignity and the lure of money in a tale of domination.
Joko is a young man, supporting his entire family from his tanker job. On the second anniversary of his employment, Joko and his fellow workers are surprised by a meeting with unspecified foreign delegates who order... him to carry himself on his back. Joko is a grotesque vision of eternal exploitation and domination of man over man, full of absurd humor and macabre.
