JAKARTA - One of the films that viewers anticipate in 2023 is Sewu Dino. Ahead of the shooting process, MD Pictures announced the line of players, directors, and teasers of the first poster from the film Sewu Dino.
"Filming will start on December 10. We want our standards to increase, we are trying hard so that the quality can be next level. Look forward to other surprises later on December 27," said MD Pictures CEO Manoj Punjabi in Jakarta, Friday.
Furthermore, Manoj said that his party chose to return to work with veteran director Kimo Stamboel (Rumah Dara, Queen of Black Sciences, Ivanna) to direct this horror film with the background of East Java.
I always feel like I have a director with different ideas at MD. I see that smart directors are able to deliver products well, understand each other's contributions, and Sewu Dino must be handled in detail," said Manoj.
On the other hand, Kimo Stamboel revealed that he can't wait to start the production process for his latest film.
I became the spirit, especially the collaborative MD and let me explore even further, we are getting more and more suitable. There is a treatment that makes us both enthusiastic. What is clear, this will be different from the previous films, and hopefully it can be enjoyed by horror lovers," said Kimo.
Meanwhile, Sewu Dino himself comes from Javanese which means a thousand days. This story was previously uploaded by the author of a KKN book and thread in Penari Village, SimpleMan, in August 2019 through his Twitter account, and received great attention from netizens.
We try to respect the threads and books. We get closer to what they have put out there. It's scary (the story is), and it has something very Indonesian once," said Kimo.
On the cast side, there are a number of Indonesian film players who star in this film. Some of them are Mikha Tambayong, Rio Dewanto, Marthino Lio, and Karina Suwandi. Talking about his role, Micah admitted that he was challenged because he had to practice long to master the East Java dialect and language.
"Language is a challenge and a concern because it is full (language) of East Java. I learned from zero to get used to the East Java language dialogue," said Mikha.
In addition, being literate while doing challenging actions is also a challenge. But so far is very excited. I'm already quite fluent because for weeks the process of learning the language and dialect is," he added, quoted from ANTARA, Saturday, December 3.
