JAKARTA - Actress Ayu Dyah Pasha plays Mira's mother in the film You Are Not Alone. Mira is the main character played by Adinia Wirasti. As a child, Mira turned out to have a bitter experience with her parents so that she grew up to be an adult who did not get along with the people around her, including her own mother.

This film makes him more aware of the dangers of an injured inner child. Children's mental health has an impact on their lives entering adulthood.

The inner child is a collection of good or bad events that occur in childhood. These events will shape a person's response, nature, and attitude when growing up.

"As a parent, I feel like the message is that we should be careful with the inner child of our own child. We don't know what happens to our child so that he grows up to be an antisocial adult, maybe because he thought his childhood was bitter," said Ayu Dyah Pasha after the special screening at CGV Grand Indonesia, Jakarta, Thursday, August 4.

Therefore, according to Ayu, parents should be able to give full attention to their children in order to understand what is happening to them. "As parents we should understand what really happened to our child, before losing him," said Ayu.

Directed by Arwin T Wardhana, You Are Not Alone tells the story of Mira (Adinia Wirasti) who is trapped in an elevator with her secret admirer, Mika (Ganindra Bimo) when a very powerful earthquake hits the city. While trapped in an elevator, Mira rethinks the meaning of life and her relationships with fellow humans.

The unique thing about the film is that most of its duration is spent by scenes set in the elevator. According to Ayu, the story idea is extraordinary. He also praised Adinia Wirasti's acting, which according to her managed to build emotions very well.

"Adinia plays like a monologue, even though Rio Dewanto finally appears. The idea is cool in my opinion. Only in one box can be a story that is not boring," said Ayu.

"Every scene, not only tense. But, we also feel the fear, anxiety, depression. If we observe, Adinia managed to play her role," he concluded.
