JAKARTA - The KKN film in Penari Village reached 3,014,079 viewers in just 9 days. This is the highest record since cinemas re-opened after the COVID=19 pandemic hit. Director Awi Suryadi revealed the secret to the film's success.
The man who was born in Lampung, 24 September 1977 chose to be loyal to the story built by Simple Man. He made no attempt to add or subtract from the story.
"You can almost say that nothing has been changed from the threat. Even if you change it, it's just like thinking about the timeline. Because the film has a duration that must be followed for screening in theaters. But fans of the story will not be disappointed because we follow the blueprint of the original story," said Awi when he visited the editor of VOI some time ago.
Filming started seriously by looking for locations that were very similar and natural as the story on Twitter. Because he did not get a permit at the original location, Awi chose to bring hundreds of crew and players to Jogjakarta.
"At first we thought the shooting was mostly in the Bogor area and its surroundings. But if we follow the story I don't think we will get it in Jakarta or Bogor and its surroundings. So I told MD to find the right location. From the start Simple Man told us we couldn't do it. filmed at the original location because he was also reprimanded by the traditional head there because this is something that I don't really want to bring up again," he said.
However, for an illustration, Awi still visited the original location of the story. "Now the location has changed a lot, from the story. The location has advanced, in the end it's not possible in the original location either. Finally, go hunting to Jogja," said Awi.
