Netflix has unveiled the latest teaser for its Indonesian series Cigarette Girl that will start streaming on November 2, 2023. Based on the novel by Ratih Kumala, the period drama tells the story of Dasiyah (Dian Sastrowardoyo), whose passion is concocting the perfect formulas for clove cigarettes, known as kretek. It also delves into her love story with Soeraja (Ario Bayu), a narrative intertwined with Indonesian historical events in 1960. Decades later, Soeraja's son, Lebas (Arya Saloka), meets Arum (Putri Marino), and together, they set out to unearth buried secrets from the past.

Helmed by acclaimed directors Kamila Andini and Ifa Isfansyah, the series is produced by BASE Entertainment with showrunners Shanty Harmayn and Tanya Yuson. Ratih Kumala and Tanya Yuson are credited as screenwriters, along with Kanya K. Priyanti and Ambaridzki Ramadhantyo.

The trailer reveals a glimpse of what viewers can expect from the series. Old Soeraja pleads with Lebas to find Dasiyah, whose love for kretek was hindered by societal norms and traditions. Determined to realize her dreams of producing the best clove cigarettes, Dasiyah becomes the catalyst that eventually brings Lebas and Arum together on an unexpected journey to the past.

The series also features actors Tissa Biani, Ine Febriyanti, Winky Wiryawan, Sheila Dara, Ibnu Jamil, Rukman Rosadi, Nungki Kusumastuti, Dimas Aditya, Pritt Timothy and Tutie Kirana.

Be sure to watch Cigarette Girl starting November 2, only on Netflix.
