"It can really air during Eid because of its theme. At that time, we submitted it by saying that it is suitable for Eid and thankfully it was given (a date). No one can force it," said Joko during a press conference at Epicentrum XXI, Rasuna Said area, South Jakarta, on Wednesday (28/2/2024).

"Who are we? Come and See pictures is a newly established PH. We don't have the power to get slots that are considered pricey," he continued.

Joko Anwar revealed that SIKSA KUBUR will discuss when people in the world believe in religious rules.

Hoping that what is conveyed can be a reflection for the audience.

"Sometimes as humans, we are arrogant because we have positions, power, so we do unfair things. Why do people do such things? Because they don't believe (in religion)," he said.

"This film tries to provide a discourse, a reflection on what if the world believes in what is forbidden by religion," said Joko.

"With this film, after returning home (the audience) can have a discussion with friends and family on what if they believe in religion. Will we live in a safer world or not," he continued.
