JAKARTA - Film 1 CM is here to give a message of nationalism to the people of Indonesia. Worked on by director Dedy Siregar, this film shows the action of 32 children from North Sumatra who compete in acting in traditional games.
Dedy Siregar said 1 CM was presented to Indonesian children who needed entertaining and educational spectacles. For him, it is important to instill good values from an early age.
"Through this 1 CM film, we are trying to educate, teach lessons in a way that can be enjoyed. In this there are nationalism messages, to the habit of using cellphones for children that must be limited," said Dedy Siregar at Epicentrum, South Jakarta, Saturday, March 8.
Meanwhile, 32 child actors who competed in acting in this film were chosen in a quite unique way. The team chose children who excel from schools spread across North Sumatra.
"They are novice actors and actresses that we selected from schools in North Sumatra. But their acting can be judged on their own. They are full of enthusiasm and serious in playing the characters in this film," said Dedy.
Diaz, one of the children's actors, said that filming was running with challenges, because they had to move from set to set. However, the team's help and enthusiasm for the cast made the shooting finished well.
"We shoot in different locations, some have cold weather, sometimes have rain constraints. This is an exciting experience for me. Luckily we are all excited, so all the obstacles that exist when working on films can be resolved," Diaz said.
Diaz admitted that he couldn't wait for the audience's response. He is proud to be involved in films that have nationalism messages while at the same time showing the potential of North Sumatran children.
"Anyway, just watch the film, it's definitely fun. Then, because we are North Sumatra's children, the dialect uses dialects like the people of North Sumatra generally when talking. Which according to ken? Suitable right," Diaz said with a laugh.
The director hopes that the presence of the 1 CM film in theaters can be a way for parents to enjoy their time with their children. Moreover, nationalism education through films is a fun way for children.
