About This Movie

Liburan Diam-Diam is an interesting blend of comedy and drama that captures the innocence of childhood desires. The story revolves around Hakim, a child who dreams of a zoo trip but faces the harsh reality of his family's financial struggles. The pacing feels intentional, allowing moments of humor to mix with the more poignant themes of longing and sacrifice. I found the performances to be quite touching, especially how the father navigates his limitations while trying to bring joy to his son. There’s a rawness to the practical effects used here, which adds to the film’s charm. It’s not flashy, but there’s something about its simplicity that resonates, really showcasing the emotional core without dressing it up too much. Definitely has its own unique vibe.
