Kapanlagi.com - After being kept secret for months, the actor who played the character Ajo Kawir in the film adaptation of Eka Kurniawan's novel titled LIKE REVENGE, LONGING MUST BE PAID IN FULL has finally been announced. The chosen actor is Marthino Lio.

Lio is very excited to be involved in this film directed by Edwin. He even admitted to rejecting another feature film project because the shooting schedule was almost the same.

"Conflicting schedules, but I chose Ajo Kawir because the character is just strange. Because I accept jobs based on feel, the frequency and feeling that I am suitable for here, here is what I prioritize. The other one is almost the same frequency but I chose here, period," said Lio in a virtual conference on Thursday (5/11/2020).

1. Genitalia Can't 'Stand'

Ajo Kawir is a unique male character but has a problem that is still considered taboo, namely impotence. In delving into his character, Marthino Lio once experienced his genitalia unable to stand.

"During the shooting process, I personally felt a bit too deep, I couldn't (sorry) get an erection. Maybe it's because of the pressure. Usually, men wake up and 'stand', but when I wake up, pee, I'm still 'asleep'," said Lio candidly.

2. Learning From People with Impotence

Furthermore, Marthino Lio explained that in order to delve into the character of Ajo Kawir, he met with someone who experienced impotence. He talked to learn the gestures and habits of that person to be applied when acting.

"I have a friend, he has the same problem (as Ajo Kawir). We met, talked, and I used what he has as a reference, there are gestures that I learned," said the Surabaya-born actor.
