'Losmen' cast make 'Reunion'

JAKARTA (JP): Actors and actresses who won fame for their TV serial Losmen in the 1980s are pooling their talents again to produce a new serial on the life of a revolutionary hero.

"The new TV drama will be totally different from Losmen in terms of both the theme of the story and characters," said film star Dewi Yull Tuesday.

Reunion, the title of the new television drama series, will be presented in 52 episodes.

The drama portrays the life of an army veteran who suffers from an inner conflict upon learning that he has an illegitimate child through his relationship with a woman during the revolutionary struggle for independence in the 1940s.

The veteran learns of this from a friend at a reunion party. The story revolves around the veteran's struggle to overcome the conflict, who has been happily married for 30 years and has two children.

The film is being produced by Giz Cipta Pratama production house and is entering its seven month of production.

The script is written by Lucy F.S. (03)
