[bunniefuu]

WARNING:

THIS EPISODE FEATURES SCENES

OF VERBAL ABUSE,

THAT MIGHT BE TRAUMATIC FOR SOME PEOPLE

So, for the tone of the house

and the interior,

we'll make it a little bit different.

Dark color scheme,

and small windows to let the light in,

so that the atmosphere is perfect.

My idea is also a bit dramatic.

This is some of my work.

Do you have a portfolio,

apart from the one in the studio?

Well, I don't have one yet.

Because I'm picky about my projects.

Coincidentally, the ones that suit me

are the projects in the studio.

Here's the visual example.

The details look good.

How about that cart?

We could make it rusty and defective,

to make it look exotic and cinematic.

I don't think it has to be like that.

I suggest you go out there

and do more in-depth research.

What for?

It's a movie. We can create it our way.

Besides, this is about poor people.

It makes sense that the cart

is rusty and defective.

Right, Bro?

She doesn't get it.

By the way, I prefer those plants

-So, Russell isn't the right fit either?

-Right.

Because his portfolio is studio-based,

like a Hollywood production,

and not suitable for our films character.

And I don't really like his explanation.

Our character is simple, actually.

And he doesn't want to do research.

It wouldn't be this complicated

if we didn't invite Jun from the start.

You're the one who agreed to it.

I thought you were a logical person.

A logical producer.

But since Jun left,

you've been so grumpy like this.

Don't bring

Reyhan, the most affluent person,

talks about poverty?

You said it's important for us

to tell this story?

Is it important because you care,

or so you can get into Saskara?

Hey! Stop!

Stop!

Okay. We will start sh**ting in five days.

Because you agree on Russell,

I'll contact him so he can

coordinate with the others

to prepare for the final meeting tomorrow.

That's good. Logical.

Don't forget.

This is the set, more or less. Is it good?

Good.

Will the color be a problem

for your camera?

No.

Write it.

Why is the production budget ballooning?

So what?

Relax. It's typical for a quality movie.

What do you mean by "relax"?

-I'll cover it.

-What do you mean?

-It's easy for you to say.

-Sorry.

Okay.

Do you want to make a good movie?

If you do, let it be. Don't panic?

Why are you quiet?

Okay. Thank you.

That's it from the Art Department.

All the mood tones are the same.

The color grading is the same

as our agreement.

You see that? Simple.

She's panicking.

-Everything's good, right?

-Yes.

Everything's good.

Excuse me.

-Do you know where Jun is?

-Don't ask me. I'm not his grandma.

-Try this one.

-I'm tired of being teased!

Hey, you!

This one's better.

This one is basic. This one's better.

Excuse me, here's the walkie talkie.

I'll just explain the scenes.

This is the first one.

-Turn it over.

-Okay.

No, it's bad. Turn it back.

Please do it over there.

La, there's some trouble.

I don't think we can continue.

It's going to rain and the crew

is having some trouble.

Which scene is it?

Alright, guys, let's start it again.

I don't want to be

the prisoner in this situation.

I want to be free!

Cut!

How was it?

Ical?

Okay, guys, it's a wrap!

Attention!

Everyone, I'd like to thank you

for your cooperation

in the making of this movie.

Thank you to the actors.

Thanks to our crew, Ical.

And also to Russell.

I don't need anything else.

The only thing I need is your confession.

Is that so hard?

Cut!

-Thank you, Ute. You were great.

-You're welcome.

Next week we'll start sh**ting,

how's your schedule?

I guess my schedule

won't be full next week. It'll be okay.

Why didn't you star

in the same movie with Reyhan?

Don't talk about him please.

Right. I'll wait for the good news.

Thank you.

God, it's intense.

Check your phone.

"Reyhan and Ute broke up!"

Amira: "Seriously?"

Salsa: "This is my chance

to flirt with Rey."

Daniel: "I heard that Reyhan is cheating."

Decky: "I'm shocked!"

Jack: "I can't believe he cheats on her."

Mary: "They broke up

because of Saskara?"

Anggi: "No! My power couple broke up!

I'm devastated!"

Andrew: "Did they broke up

because he's cheating or Saskara?"

Livia: "I heard Reyhan

was close with a junior."

Evi: "Check out Ute's social media!

Reyhan's photos were deleted."

Alfeus: "Spill the producer!"

Ronny: "Who is she?"

Ikhsan: "The junior, Lala."

Michell: "Lala Ardianto?"

Riri: "Where's Lala?"

Niki Sinten: "Launch attack!"

These guys are crazy.

Why are they involving me

in your relationship problems?

Ute's fans in college must be acting up.

I really don't like this kind of drama.

Wait, are you guys

We're not!

Chill girl! Don't be so mean.

You weirdo.

-Have you finished?

-I guess so.

Alright, I'll call my dad,

if he agrees to it we can send it.

Rey, I have to submit it now.

Just a minute. I'll call my dad now.

If he agrees to it, we'll send it.

Enough.

If you keep reading it,

you'll blow your head off.

Except, you wish that rumor comes true.

My life is complicated enough,

I don't want to steal someone else's man.

How do I know that.

Maybe you're an adrenaline junkie.

How do you delete these comments?

Don't mind them.

If there's a hotter rumor

they'll forget about you. Chill girl.

My dad approved it.

-Submit it now.

-Wait a second.

Here we go.

Excuse me, Sir.

I want to submit my assignment.

Put it there please.

What is it, La?

I still don't get it

Why you said our movie was bad.

What's your opinion then?

It's good.

It's heart-warming.

The movie is also promoting

an important issue.

That's good if you feel that way.

Here's the thing.

I never said your movie was bad.

I'm sure that your movie

has some potential.

I asked if you guys

really understood the issue?

As a filmmaker,

especially when you're promoting an issue,

the best way is to promote

the issues around you.

Your movie is about

someone who is shackled by poverty

due to social inequality in her village.

But at the end of the story

you emphasize the protagonist's

powerlessness to fight.

You can't talk about the differences

between structural and cultural poverty,

if you promote the poverty issue

without deep understanding.

And because the movie is made

by people like you and Reyhan

it tends to show stereotypes.

I'm sure the movie

will be cinematic and dramatic

but you have to be more careful,

it can backfire,

especially when dealing with viewers

who understand the issues.

Why did you change

your script writing style?

It hasn't changed,

it's just more emphasized.

Because in the last script,

I think there's an issue

Do you mean the poverty issue?

Are you sure?

Of course. What's wrong?

I need to talk to you.

Go ahead.

Be patient, I'm thinking about

how to say sorry to you.

Do you want be mad at me or apologize?

I want to apologize

because I wasn't listening to you.

I'm sorry.

Draw on your forehead with it

if your bad habit relapses.

Slowly, you'll become aware of it

and try to stop it.

Good idea.

But not on the forehead,

I'll draw on my arm.

Why are there so many?

It's hard to understand people lately.

-What are you doing?

-Don't move.

-That's enough.

-Here.

Thanks.

'LARUNG' WILL BE NOMINATED

FOR THE SASKARA FILM FESTIVAL 2023

Yes!

Yes! Yes!

You've forgiven me, right?

You know me.

Thank you.

Hey, Guys.

We made it.

-Really? Seriously?

-Yeah!

We made it!

-We made it! I told you!

-Calm down.

Congratulations.

Thanks to my editing skills.

I'm the producer.

Congrats.

-Congrats.

-You too.

I'm tired, I was running.

-Hello?

-Hello.

What are you doing, Jess?

I know it's last minute,

but tonight is FFS awards night.

You're so ungrateful!

I asked my mom,

but you know what her answer was.

I can do whatever I want!

Are you free tonight?

I see. Yeah.

You do understand,

if "Larung" is nominated at the FFS

I can prove to my mom that

I'm serious about studying this major.

Will you come?

Jess? Are you okay?

I'm sorry, but please just focus

on the awards night.

You get the chance

to prove it to your mom.

I talk to you nicely!

-Congrats, La.

-Wait. Jess.

Where is Jess?

Why is she always stay in her room?

Jess is working on her assignment.

You made her act this way.

You have to respect me.

Jessica is an adult!

This is my house!

You have to obey my rules!

But you're rarely at home!

I'm working so hard,

but you can't take care of our child!

You're the one who wanted to have a child.

Having a child is not easy.

I would have divorced you long ago

if it wasn't for Jess.

Please don't.

You have to tell me if anything happens.

Okay?

Isn't this what you wanted?

that don't care about us?

What about our own will?

Aimless ambition

running to be a champion

a disappointed heart

dancing until your mad.
