Daring to Take the Challenge, TJ Gains Up to 20 Kg for the Film 'WHY DO YOU LOVE ME'
TJ goes all out for his new role in the film 'WHY DO YOU LOVE ME'!
Kapanlagi.com - The official trailer of the movie PETI MATI, produced by Adroit Indonesia and presented by Balai Pustaka, is now exclusively screening on the Cinema 21 Youtube channel on Tuesday, June 20, 2023 at exactly 12.00 pm WIB.
The film, directed by Irham Acho Bahtiar, is based on the novel Sarchophagus Onrust which tells the story of a historical tragedy that occurred in the Onrust Islands. This became one of the strong reasons for Acho - his nickname - when asked to make his debut film from Balai Pustaka. Previously, Acho has directed several comedy films.
“Actually, I avoided some pure horror genres like pocong-pocongan, kuntil anak, and so on. Instead, what I found in this story in the novel Sarcophagus Onrust is a unique horror. It's not like any other horror,” he explained.
Furthermore, Acho explained his interest in the movie PETI MATI because of its unique storyline.
Combining a real historical event with a fictional story makes a movie that is interesting to watch and enjoy by movie enthusiasts later on.

“That's what I think is rarely raised in Indonesia. The element of fantasy is what I like, and there aren't too many ghosts that are usually said to be too common. If here, the story sells more about mystery puzzles; and has quite unique ghosts that are rare. That's what got me interested when I saw this story,” he said.
The film, which was made in mid-2019, not only features young actors such as Yoriko Angeline (Susan), Aliff Alli (Bram), Cristina Danilla (Maria Van de Velde), and Eryck Amaral (Jan Koenraad). Several senior actors are also involved in this film such as Donny Damara (Prof. Daniel), Dewi Rezer (Prof. Tarina), Mathias Muchus (Pak Ibrahim Kakek Susan), Egi Fedly (Hasan), Ray Sahetapy (Dr. Victor). and Wina Marino (Susan's mother).
For Acho, being able to direct both young and senior actors is a fun thing. He also said that he did not find any difficulties while on location. However, Acho did not deny the difficulties he faced when directing the extras.
“They trained for almost a month, we also provided an acting coach every day to train them. What I find difficult is when directing foreign extras. There are quite a lot of foreigners here. Their numbers range from tens to hundreds. They are all brought to Onrust Island and briefed there. Because Onrust is quite far, they have to stay overnight. We ended up setting up tents like military tents. Everyone stayed there in those tents,” he said.
