JAKARTA - The film Rumah Untuk Alie is the latest teen film directed by Herwin Novianto. Played by Anantya Kirana, this film is an adaptation of a novel of the same name by Lenn Liu.

The story focuses on bullying experienced by a child which is the main story and is relevant to stories in Indonesia.

The house for Alie focuses on Alie (Anantya Kirana), a youngest daughter who lives with her father and four brothers. Alie was avoided and ignored by the five people after the death of her mother, Gianla (Tika Brahani).

Every day, Alie goes to school alone even though she attends the same school as her siblings. This is done so that no one knows that they are relatives.

One day, Alie who left the classroom saw her sister talking on the field, one of whom was Rendi (Rafly Altama) who waved his hand at Alie. The interaction was seen by a class like a class who thought Alie liked Rendi.

Since then, Alie has received bullying from her seniors at school, but her siblings have not helped because they are worried that their relationship will be known. When he returned home, Alie was also often scolded by her father, Abhimanyu (Rizky Hanggono) who condemned Alie's whereabouts.

Premis ceritanya sangat menarik, tapi mengingat belum pernah membaca novelnya sehingga tidak tahu apakah ceritanya akan diterjemahkan se-dramatis ini. Sejak film ini dimulai, karakter utama kita, Alie mengalami perundungan begitu besar hingga ia tidak punya kemampuan untuk melawan.

Seeing the scene raises a number of questions, about the reasons that make Alie so hated by her surroundings. Our main character is also not described heroicly but worth a piece of paper. The transition between scenes is not always smooth but the story is quite witnessable.

Despite the dramatic story, Anantya Kirana as the main character played well. Some moments helped by camera briefing greatly emphasize the vulnerability of a child in the face of a cruel life.

The film also selects the ending of the story that is anti-mainstream and may not follow the story in general, but maybe that's what the creator wants to convey about the conflict of bullying and its impacts.

In addition, this film is also supported by Dito Darmawan, Faris Fadjar Tunggaran, Ully Triani, Sheila Kusnadi, Jonathan Alvaro, Alexandra Vallerie, Sabrina Nazwa, Aline Fauziah, Hanny Maharani.

Film Rumah Untuk Alie tayang di bioskop Indonesia mulai Kamis, 17 April.
