Billy Christian Films

Ikhsan Himawan is The Clown. Working with Ikhsan is fun. I feel like having a spiritual journey through our character development session. he's giving a different perspective that never cross in my mind, which is good. He's also willing to reduce his weight for the character. what i'm trying to get is a perfect image f...or both of the actors, because it has to be an ironic for a perfectly human who has so many bad things happened in their life..the collaboration works great.

I was trying to make a stronger bond between myself and the actors. We built the bond when we rehearse and reading session weeks before. and it develops much stronger when we're on location. In my case, I have two talented actor that is so professional, i feel lucky about it. we share from the most intimate feelings ab...out things and experiences in life and we try to brings it together within the story. Atiqah Hasiholan and Ikhsan Himawan brings it perfectly as I imagine

This my latest work. And it was kind of dilemma if someone ask me to have ONLY ONE screening and i had to choose which film that will be on screening. because this two film is very different. i have my own political view for this two films. Sang Badut dan Seorang Pengantin, stands for my idealism for making a short film which is less artistry and not eye candy. it has a content that very controversional. But Bye Lulla Lullaby stands for its artistry identity, eye catching and i would like to say this was a compromise with an industry situation... but both have my personal identity tho..
