Producer director and actor of HITBK film (Tari/VOI)

JAKARTA - Ajil Ditto is required to be a pioneering artist through his latest film, Hidup Ini Juga Banyak Kamu (Life Is Too Much of You). He stars opposite Adinia Wirasti, where they will have their own love story.

Ajil Ditto plays Sadali, a man who comes to Yogyakarta to go to art school. However, his life changes after meeting Mera (Adinia Wirasti).

"The breakdown of Sadali's character is enough. If it's not dissected, I don't understand where Sadali's thoughts are going. The story is if you dissect the backstory, oh Sadali's direction is here," said Ajil Ditto in a press conference on Friday, November 15.

He admitted that in his entire life, this was the first time he had held a brush and canvas to paint. He also did a workshop to explore the character who loves art.

"Several workshops and not just for a short time but all day long, I was free. Some were in accordance with the example picture, some were in accordance with what I wanted and this was my first experience because it was the first time I held a brush and canvas," said Ajil.

In addition, Ajil also felt helped by Adinia Wirasti as a more senior actor to play the scenes as Sadali and Mera.

"As Kak Asti (Adinia Wirasti) said, we created an imagination about what happened in the '90s," said Ajil Ditto.

The film Hidup Ini Juga Banyak Kamu tells the story of Sadali (Ajil Ditto) who moved to Yogyakarta to realize his dream. He met Mera (Adinia Wirasti) who made him fall in love even though he turned out to have a crush in his hometown.

Meanwhile, the film Hidup Ini Juga Banyak Kamu will be showing in Indonesian cinemas starting November 21.
