About Someone (2005)

Tentang Dia, adapted from Melly Goeslow’s short story, explores the delicate theme of healing from past trauma with a subtle nod to LGBT issues, delivering more depth than its initial poster suggests. The film thoughtfully portrays each character’s personal struggles, though the chemistry between actors and the conflict resolution feel somewhat lacking, with dialogue occasionally stiff. Despite some flaws in costume and makeup choices, the soundtrack enhances the emotional atmosphere, making the story engaging yet leaving room for further improvement.
