Narratage tells a slow-burning story of complicated feelings between a former student and her teacher, exploring emotional ties that deepen after graduation. Despite its mature premise, the film struggles with pacing, disjointed storytelling, and questionable character logic, which may test viewers' patience. It ultimately conveys a strong message: never start a new relationship without first making peace with the past. Read the full review here: (Indonesian version : alunauwie.com)
