Stepping Away from the Role of a Homewrecker, Davina Karamoy Becomes a Photographer for the Film 'DO NOT WANT TO END HERE'

Kapanlagi.com - Known as an actress who often plays the role of a 'homewrecker', Davina Karamoy is now enriching her acting skills by playing the role of a photographer in the film DO NOT WANT TO END HERE. This film, directed by Robert Ronny, required her to attend a workshop as if she were going back to school to understand how a photographer works on a daily basis.

Not just an ordinary photographer, the character Vero played by Davina Karamoy is known to have a rather complex personality. She is the fiancée of Armand (Rayn Wijaya) who has to let go of her heart's anchor for someone else at the request of K (Bryan Domani). Although she appears fierce on the outside, there is a vulnerability in her heart that she tries to hide from others.

DO NOT WANT TO END HERE is a film presented by Paragon Pictures in collaboration with Ideosource Entertainment that is set to be screened in cinemas across Indonesia starting June 5, 2025. This film tells a love story full of sacrifice between two friends K and Cream (Vanesha Prescilla), adapted from the 2009 South Korean release, MORE THAN BLUE.

Before starting the shooting process as Vero, Davina Karamoy needs to learn more about the profession of a photographer itself. This beautiful actress born in 2002 revealed that she spent at least three to five hours attending a workshop with the director and Erik, one of the photographers who also took pictures for the film poster DON'T WANT IT TO END HERE.

"There are three (or) four up to five hours in the room (workshop) I was told, 'This is the camera, like this-like this.' and Mas Robert was like, 'Davina, you have to carry this camera everywhere. You have to get used to carrying this camera.'" Davina stated while attending a press conference at XXI Epicentrum Walk on Wednesday (28/05/2025).

"Maybe in my screen time I don't have that much for the photo scene, but (the workshop and getting used to carrying the camera) is very, very helpful. So, (I) am grateful to have a director like Mas Robert who really helps the cast to explore their characters." She added.

K and Cream are a pair of friends who rose together from the deep sorrow of losing both of their parents since they were in high school. They both fill each other's days and strengthen one another, realizing that life must go on as it should.

After graduating, they attended college majoring in marketing, worked in the music industry, and participated in volunteer activities together. However, unbeknownst to the girl whose real name is Clarissa, K has been keeping a big secret from her, namely a serious illness that threatens his life, and he is secretly preparing for a farewell so that someone will be able to take care of her after he is gone.

Although deep down it is hard to feel sincere, K, also known as Kawidra, is reluctant to give up searching for someone who can make his friend happy when he is no longer in this world. He considers Armand to be sufficient to take care of and marry Cream. Moreover, they seem to love each other in the eyes of the radio announcer—without him knowing that the dentist already has a fiancée, Vero.
