Daysleepers

Loneliness is always lurking in the megapolis of Jakarta. Take Andrea for example, who goes to work at night, at a time when the office is completely deserted. It is no different for writer Leon, who leaves for his favourite café late at night, to work on his manuscript. The café lies directly opposite Andrea's office building, and of course Leon notices the light that is always still on behind one window. He can also see a shadow and wonders who that is. Andrea is as curious about the figure she keeps seeing at the café late at night. One day they discover each other.

In this romantic story, director Paul Agusta paid particular attention to fully fleshing out his characters. Leon and Andrea are convincingly real, with depth and complexity, also due to the terrific acting of the two principal protagonists Dinda Kanyadewi and Khiva Iskak.
