Synopsis

Boy is a smart, handsome teenager who looks cool and gets plenty of attention from young women, whom he generally ignores. He is also the leader of the Warrior motorcycle gang. He still pines for Adriana, his ex-girlfriend who left him for a much older and wealthier man.

One day, Boy saves Reva, a girl on a motorbike who is being chased by another gang. Boy is impressed with Reva's riding skills, but she is annoyed at him. The rival gang, led by Mondy, mistakenly believes Reva to be a member of Warrior, and she anticipates a gang rivalry. Boy feels guilty and decides to dissolve Warrior. This leads to conflict among the group's members, and Warrior eventually splits up.

Reva is the daughter of a wealthy businessman, Bey, and she races motorcycles as a form of rebellion against the fact that he marries Adriana, a girl her own age, after Reva's mother dies. Reva believes Adriana is the cause of her mother's death, and she resists Adriana's attempts to win her over.

In the end, Boy dies in a motorcycle accident.

Controversy

IBC warning

The Indonesian Broadcasting Commission (KPI) issued a warning to the producers of Anak Jalanan on 24 November 2015 for the use of explicit violence in the 11 November 2015 episode. The show also often depicts scenes of motorcycle racing, which KPI deemed unsuitable for broadcast due to the potential for copycat behaviour, especially as the show was mainly watched by teenagers.[citation needed]

Dylan Carr arrest

Dylan Carr was arrested by the police on 6 January 2016 for cannabis possession while on his way to a filming location. Urine tests revealed he had been using illicit drugs.[4]
