Director’s Statement: In this film, I am thinking about the fate of a family that only has a daughter – they are hoping for offspring to carry on the family responsibilities. I feel an emotional closeness to the traditions of my community. My parents said that it was strictly forbidden for a man to follow a woman’s family.
I Made Suniartika was born and raised in Bali and is close to local culture and traditions. Now living in Yogykarta, he is completing his education at Jogja Film Academy. He continues to focus on pursuing his life in the film world.
