Prilly Latuconsina Reveals the Reason for Choosing Sheila Dara and Ringgo Agus Rahman as Ambassadors for FFI 2025

Prilly Latuconsina shares the story behind the decision to appoint Sheila Dara and Ringgo Agus Rahman as ambassadors for the Indonesian Film Festival (FFI) 2025. As the Chair of the Program Committee, Prilly felt it was necessary to consider many factors before presenting these two names to the committee.

According to Prilly, Sheila and Ringgo have been on the list since the initial FFI 2025 meeting was held. She also had to prepare a presentation explaining the reasons for their selection thoroughly.

"Actually, the names Sheila and Ringgo have been on the list for a long time since our initial meeting. As the program chair, I have to present to the committee who should be the ambassadors, the reasons why, and research all their films first," explained Prilly Latuconsina in the Senayan area, Central Jakarta, Tuesday (1/7/2025).

The official appointment was only made after the schedules of both actors were adjusted to the FFI agenda. Prilly admitted that the process was carried out once all plans were final.

"Well, contacting them was only possible once we had fixed the schedule so we could directly lock in the schedules of these ambassadors because their schedules are busy," said Prilly Latuconsina.

In the process of contacting Ringgo, Prilly even took the time to manage communication while on vacation. She hopes that Ringgo will accept the offer.

"I really felt like I was WhatsApp-ing him praying hard during the vacation, hoping he would say yes. But it turns out his response was really good, immediately saying, ‘oh okay, I want to.’ It’s just a shame he can’t attend because he just returned from a family vacation tonight, but for sure Ringgo and Sheila will join our program later on the road to FFI," she explained.

For Prilly, the presence of Sheila and Ringgo is considered to represent the spirit of this year's FFI theme, which is Puspawarna Sinema Indonesia. This theme reflects the diversity of genres and colors in the film industry of the homeland.

"Puspawarna means a variety of colors; if we look at Ms. Sheila Dara and Ringgo, they have played many genres and won last year. Brother Ringgo, I grew up watching his films until he won yesterday in Jatuh Cinta Seperti di Film Film," concluded Prilly Latuconsina.
