The idea for this film came from the song, “Suddenly Pregnant”, by Bite. It is about a teenager who becomes pregnant, a common occurence for lots of young girls. In such situations, it is always the girl who suffers the most. In this video, I try to expose the issue by using another social situation that is common lately — social network sites — where we don’t really need to know a person and their life. We just look at their profile page get a small or large insight of what is happening to that person. From the Lagu Gambar Gerak Program by Video Rober.
Ide awal diambil dari lirik lagu Tiba-tiba Hamil karya Bite. Berkisah soal seorang remaja yang tiba-tiba hamil di luar nikah yang saat ini banyak terjadi. Pihak perempuanlah yang paling dirugikan dalam hal ini. Dalam video ini saya mencoba untuk mengedepankan isu tersebut dengan menggunakan fakta sosial yang sedang marak saat ini, yaitu situs-situs jejaring sosial, dimana kita tidak perlu kenal secara pribadi kehidupan seseorang. Hanya dengan melihat halaman profilnya kita dapat mengetahui sedikit atau bahkan sebagian besar peristiwa yang sedang terjadi pada seseorang tersebut. Diambil dari program Lagu Gambar Gerak oleh Video Rober.
