What happens

Antara Dua Darjat (English: Between Two Classes) is a 1960 Singaporean Malay-language black-and-white romantic melodrama film directed by and starring Malaysian silver-screen legend P. Ramlee and Saadiah. This film revolves around the obstacle of romance for a couple of lovers (P. Ramlee and Saadiah) due to family holdings that adhere to the ladder of rank and descent which cannot unite those of high rank and low rank thus triggering bloody conflict, mental stress, family feuds up to hypocrisy and soul murder.
