Beby Tsabina Stars in the Historical Film 'EMMY', Learning How to Treat Gunshot Wounds to Research

Kapanlagi.com - Beautiful actress Beby Tsabina faces a major challenge in her latest film project titled EMMY. In this film produced by Denny Siregar Production, Beby is trusted to portray the female hero from Makassar, Emmy Saelan.

This role requires thorough preparation, from a strict casting process to an in-depth character study through literature research. Beby shared that from the very beginning, she was given a very clear picture of the character she would portray.

1. Emmy's Character as a Nurse

Emmy's character is portrayed as a nurse who directly enters the battlefield in 1947. This requires Beby to learn many new things she has never done before, especially related to emergency medical procedures in the forest.

Technical preparations were also made through various workshops. Because of her role as a field nurse, Beby must understand how to handle gunshot wounds with very limited equipment.

This experience provides her with a new perspective on the heavy struggles faced by medical personnel in the past who had to risk their lives on the front lines.

"It’s not just about nurses in the past, but because in the middle of this film's story, Emi comes to be a nurse in the field. So there are a lot of emergencies, uh, gunshot wounds are different from in bed and in a hospital bed versus in the forest," said Beby Tsabina when met in Kebayoran Baru, South Jakarta, on Friday (27/3/20206)

"So we were also given a nurse who could help understand what it’s like if there’s no mattress in the forest, if there’s no alcohol, what to use, that was already provided," she added.

3. Beby Tsabina Conducts Independent Research

In addition to medical workshops, Beby also conducts independent research. Considering that information about Emmy Saelan is not widely available, she found the book references provided by the director, Emil Heradi, very helpful. Beby admitted to being very enthusiastic when she started reading the script and delving into the background of the hero.

4. Beby Conducts Research Through Books

"As I mentioned earlier, I was given quite clear information about Emmy's character, but I did look for more. As I also mentioned during the interview, there aren't many stories from Emi herself; they are fragmented, so I really had to do quite a bit of research. Fortunately, when I arrived, after we had a deal and everything was set, I got to production, and our director had several books that might have been part of his research, so I took one book. Bote also has one book. From there, we got to know more about each character," she said.

For Beby, playing a real character like Emmy Saelan carries a unique burden but also pride. She wants to ensure that the struggles of the hero can be conveyed well to the current generation of viewers through her acting.

6. Beby Has Been Explained About the Character Emmy

"What the character is like, what my impression of the character is, the synopsis, what the age is like, the traits, all of that is clearly outlined. So it really feels like I was given a clear understanding of the character," she said.

7. Reasons Beby is Interested in the Film Emmy

"Then, well, I auditioned, I auditioned, and it’s not guaranteed that I would pass, right? So then I auditioned and was given the script to read a little, even though I hadn't seen everything, I was interested because the synopsis had already told me what the role was like," concluded Beby.
