The 15-minute short presents Adit, a young man who has a hard time looking for a job, a partner and his own passion in life. He gets a job at Sal’s cafe, only to find out that he has to work with a horrifying monster called GOBRADINZOR (512). However, as time goes on, Adit learns to face this monster and looks for ways to celebrate their encounter.

Sal brought in director Aco Tenri, best known for 2020’s short film Quarantine Tales, to work on the visual companion for the song.

“I first met Aco when I was working on another thing. I looked at Aco's works, then I found something that I rarely find in other filmmakers. There is innocence, simplicity," he said in a press release.

“What I tried to do when writing the lyrics for 'Serta Mulia' was to be sincere, without embellishments. Just like Aco's works," he added.

Sal admitted that fans had asked him about the music video for the single, which released in February, but he could not seem to find a reason to make it before he met director Aco.

In addition to Sal as the café owner, this short also stars stand-up comedian/animation director Ryan Adriandhy, whose contribution Aco was thankful for.
