JAKARTA - The vocalist of the Indonesian rock band /rif, Andi, revealed his experiences and challenges when he and the band composed the song "Angel Kecil" which became the theme song (soundtrack) for the film Rio the Survivor.
"The challenge in making a soundtrack for the film, is how to make the song also the message of the film. I was given a short story about Rio the Survivor, and how from the short story given I had to adapt it to the theme of the film," said Andi when met at press conference in Jakarta, Saturday, March 26, 2022, as quoted by Antara.
"Difficult, but interesting," he added.
Furthermore, Andi said he was interested in being involved in making Rio the Survivor because of his close relationship with the Syair.org organization which provides guidance for children with HIV. He hopes that the presence of this song and film can give them an embrace and the audience of the work.
"The song we made with the title 'The Little Angel' can already be enjoyed on all digital music platforms, and the sales proceeds will be channeled to Syair," said Andi.
In addition to the /rif, the theme song for the film also features Godbless, Buluk with the band Kausa, and Jikunsprain. There is also Slank guitarist, Ridho Hafiedz, who acts as music director.
Rio the Survivor is based on the true story of a child living with HIV and fighting for the right to life and for education. Rio Sudiro (11 years old) has been living with HIV since birth, and both of his parents have died of AIDS.
