THE LONG JOURNEY TO YOU
FILMING LOCATIONS
In Deon's dream, the location of the village where Madaharsa lives is the village at the foot of the mountain where behind the mountain is a beach with a beautiful view. That sight was always the reason for Akmana to meet and spend time with Madaharsa. The view of the twilight sky and the starry night seen from the mountain was a beautiful sight. Deon who saw him in a dream also agreed with Akmana's thoughts in his dream.
“If you've returned to the city you are in and missed this place and me, look up to the sky. Pray and if you are lucky to see a shooting star there, then that is a sign I heard your prayer!”
In one of Deon's dreams that recently surfaced, Deon dreams of it - a starry night view between himself and Madaharsa where Madaharsa tells Deon the message.
“Star falls? Why should the star fall?”
“In the stories of our ancestors, the heirloom objects brought by this village maker came from a shooting star. In the story too, he said the village maker attacked the creatures that once inhabited the forests and mountains here like hundreds of shooting stars.”
“I mean meteor shower??”
“Yes, maybe you guys call it that way.”
And when Deon woke up from his dream, Deon remembered a meteor shower in which he made little hope. And since then, Deon has continued to dream of Madaharsa and soon met with Algiz.
Based on what happened in his recent life: Algiz, Madaharsa, dreams, meteor showers, Isaz and Baram, among others, Deon feels that everything is interconnected and that the relationship started from his past life.
I need to know what happened in the past. Based on that sentence, Deon began to find out what happened to Madaharsa in the past.
“What did you just ask, Deon?” Niel asked in shock and disbelief.
“Do you have friends who work in history and archeology?” Deon repeated the question.
“You're weird. Don't you usually ask for this?” Niel still can't believe it. “What does this have to do with that movie project?”
“Ya.” Deon was half lying. “I feel that what was written in the scenario of Long Journey to You was not entirely written. I just want to make sure. So you have an acquaintance I asked no?”
“Pu-punya.”
So before filming began, Deon met up with Niel-Virzha's friend and asked Virzha for help to find anything related to Madaharsa's story and her heirloom.
Virzha agreed to the request because Virzha is a fan of Deon. But unfortunately it is not easy for Virzha to find that history. It takes time for Virzha to find what Deon is asking for.
And while waiting, Deon did his job as an actor and shot for his project ‘Long Journey to You’. The location chosen for the set is a bit like the scene Deon saw in his dream: the village at the foot of a mountain with the beach and the sea behind the mountain. The selection of this location took quite a long time for the crew and director to find it.
According to the director, this script was actually entered last year and has been included in the list of projects to be done. Dana and the crew were ready within two months, unfortunately the location described was difficult to find.
“It's a nice place.” Niel was stunned when he saw the view of the sea and the beach behind the mountain.
“True. It's a nice and rare sight. In this country there are only three mountains with sea behind them. One of them was an active and dangerous mountain to choose as a filming location. Another one is the mountain which is the location of the nature reserve, so the mountain is also prohibited as a filming location. And last is this mountain,” explained the director on Deon and Niel. “We are lucky this mountain is a small mountain and coincidentally in the middle there is a cave that is a mountain cutting path and makes us able to see what is behind the mountain in just one hour walk.”
“What cave is safe?” Niel tried to ascertain Deon's safety.
“Yes. According to the villagers of this cave they always use to cut the journey up and down the mountain which actually takes half a day walk.”
Deon stared at the sea view before him. Algiz, how are you? We haven't seen and talked in a long time.

“Akhhhh!!”
“Madaharsa!! Why with you?”
“Hold, Madaharsa!! I beg you, hold on!!”
I don't know how many footsteps Deon has stepped on, I don't know how much energy Deon has released and I don't know how many words Deon has told Madaharsa, Deon can't remember. What is clear is that once he arrived in the village, Deon immediately met the Baram family where Father Baram was the village chief and asked them to check on Madaharsa.
“Madaharsa!!” Baram screamed in dismay when he saw Madaharsa on Deon's back.
“Guard!! What's with the guard?” Baram's father and the village chief also put on a frantic face to see Madaharsa on Deon's back.
“He suddenly screams in pain. I don't know what happened to him!” Deon tried to explain and as usual his mouth spoke before his brain gave the order.
“Let down and lay down first here, Son!” The village chief gave the order to Deon while pointing to a simple bed in one of his rooms.
“What happened to Madaharsa, Dad?” Baram asked with an anxious look on his face.
That face, that look. Looking at the current Baram, Deon recalled Isaz who had met him some time ago. Baram's face and countenance are exactly the same as Isaz's. Baram stared in anger at Deon but the highlight of his eyes was the look of worried and anxious eyes and the look was aimed at Madaharsa.
“Akhh!!” Madaharsa whimpered in pain again.
“What hurts, Guard?” Ayam Baram as well as the village head, tried to find what was wrong with Madaharsa.
“My heart feels nailed. My chest hurts so much!” Madaharsa tried to speak despite continuing to moan in pain.
“Wire!!” The look on the village chief's face immediately turned dark after hearing Madaharsa's reply.
“Why, Dad?” ask Baram.
“There is an entry into the repository of heirlooms!”
“What Dad sure?”
“Yes. This is not wrong again.In the history of your great-grandfather written the same thing. The guard will feel pain in his chest precisely his heart if anyone enters without permission into the place where the heirloom is stored.”
Baram immediately looked towards Deon and looked at Deon with an accusatory look. “This must have been your friends, Akmana!! Where's your friend??”
Wha what?? Deon's hand suddenly shook. “This is impossible! Madaharsa told me that she didn't even know where it was kept and hidden. How can my friend find that thing even when the guards don't know??
The duarrr! Wussshh!
“Wire!! The storm is coming!!” The village chief panicked. “If we can't find the person who entered forcibly, then this village along with everyone inside will be destroyed. It will flatten this place because it is touched by a person who is not the owner.”
