Armand Maulana Interview in Rerata Music Video

We reached out to six Indonesians who have lived in London for several years, including Armand's daughter. We ask what message their loved one gives to them before they go far away from home. In the process, they tell what it feels like to be far away from home, their happiness, their struggle, and their biggest heartbreak.

 

My favorite part of making a documentary is when I can ask the right question so I can hear the story that my subject probably rarely or never shares with anyone. Whether it is a funny one, an exciting one, or maybe a hurtful one. Making this music video was a really emotional journey for me, after every interview I had to get myself together because of the emotional story my subject shared. Then being able to craft their story into this video, so a bigger audience can hear the story and get impacted, knowing they're not alone, is another thing that I love about making a documentary, or maybe a film and video in general. That's why I'm really grateful to have the opportunity to be part of this project, I sincerely thank my subject for sharing their story with me and to a bigger audience, I wish the best for all of you guys, and just like what Armand told us in this song "Setiap patah hati menuju kebahagiaan"
