JAKARTA - The Imaginari production house will soon release a film that raises the story of the Eastern Indonesian family entitled Kaka Boss, directed by Arie Kriting.

Ernest acknowledged that this film is indeed very thick with Eastern Indonesian culture, but he believes that this film will still be understood by all viewers who are not from Eastern Indonesia.

There are two reasons he said that. The first thing related to the story that was built was the family story of the father and son relationship experienced by everyone.

"Once again, like I said earlier, we are of any ethnicity, the name is family conflict, father and son, definitely not far away, the dynamics in the family will go how far," said Ernest Prakasa in the Ampera area, South Jakarta, Monday, August 19.

"We are both Indonesians, Indonesians are stupid, familiar, communal, so it must be similar like that. So the first point is, if you want any ethnicity, how to build the essence of a humane conflict," he added.

The second is that the language used in this film is not fully Eastern Indonesian. So that even though there is an East language interest, the audience can still understand the dialogue in question.

"Secondly, how to use language, measure the level of authenticity of the language. That means, if it's scary, our Kaka Boss uses language, actually Indonesian. Even if there is a regional language, it's more like a jatoh, accentuation is just thin, so it feels authentic," explained Ernest Prakasa.

"Because if we use the language, full language, the ethnic language, I think I will identify people who come from outside the treats. So we are not afraid to make dramas or films in general that are very based on certain ethnicities. But when we deliver the script," he said.
