About Cin(T)a
Cina (Sunny Soon), an 18 year-old college freshmen, is ready to conquer the world with a strong yet naive faith, since it has never been tested by failure. Annisa (Saira Jihan) is a 24-year-old college senior whose education was held back because of her career in the movie industry. Her fame and beauty leave her so lonely that she draws a sad face on her finger to serve as her companion. One day, another "finger" comes, and she is no longer lonely.
(T) is the most unpredictable character. Everybody tries to describe Him. Everybody thinks they know Him. Every art tries to represent Him. But nothing is really like Him... or Her? (T) loves Cina and Annisa, but Cina and Annisa can't love each other because they call (T) by different names.
The growth of Indonesian filmmaking in recent years has seen the theme of love reduced to a level that is too often exploited and simplified. With a love story that is seen through a different lens, Cin(T)a serves up a menu of various dialogues that peel apart the differences with honesty and wit. In reality, it is the acknowledgment and working through of our differences that spur our world to move forward; our differences must not be a reason for us to obstruct each other. Screenwriters Sammaria Simanjuntak and Sally Anom Sari have created a story that is simple, yet evocative of the multicultural conditions of Indonesia.
