Di tengah harapan, kegagalan dan rencana-rencana baru, Denok dan Gareng tetap bersatu dalam perjuangan mereka untuk kelak mencapai penghidupan yang layak. Di rumah Gareng yang sederhana, pasangan muda muslim yang juga mantan anak jalanan ini memulai peternakan babi demi penghidupan. Namun tantangan dan cobaan selalu mendera, menguji kesabaran dan keriangan mereka menghadapi hidup. Film dengan pendekatan observasional ini merekam hubungan suami istri yang penuh dinamika, tawa dan perjuangan, di tengah takdir yang mungkin bagi orang lain, terasa sia-sia.

In the constant stream of hoping, failing and making new plans, Denok and Gareng stay united in their passionate struggle to make it up the hill one day. In the modest house of Gareng’s mum, these young, ex-street urchins Muslim couple starts a small pig business, looking for the lucky streak to come over the family. But new challenges constantly arise, putting their cheerfulness and patience on trial. In an entirely observational approach, ‘Denok & Gareng’ explores a strong loving relationship inside a strikingly vivid family that sticks together, fights back and laughs, about what others would call a Sisyphus fate.
