Backstage (2021) Movie Script
1
I remember
The way you glanced at me, yes I remember
I remember
When we caught a shooting star, yes I remember
I remember
All the things that we shared, and all the promise we made, just you and I
I remember
All the laughter we shared, all the wishes we made,
upon the roof at dawn
Do you remember?
When we were dancing in the rain in that December
And I remember
When our father thought you were a burglar
I remember
All the things that we shared, and the promise we made, just you and I
I remember
All the laughter we shared,
all the wishes we made, upon the roof at dawn
Yes I remember
The way you read your books
Yes I remember. -I remember
The way you tied your shoes. Yes I remember.
When we were dancing in the rain in that December
And the way you smile at me
Yes I remember
Amazing
Well be out of job
You can still sing your heart out
Samsul, this is the art of enjoying life
Elsa, you need money to enjoy life
Look at the cafe
Today is the last day but no one is here
At least we will still be compensated
I think you don't get it
What is it?
The landlord came looking for Mr Hendry
He seems to be missing for a week
Yeah?
How can we get our pay? The guy is gone
But we need our last paycheck and compensation
We all need it, not just you
You're not kidding me?
What a jerk!
Lets find Hendry and get our money
Sandra, come on, where can we find him?
The whole world is looking for him
But we need the money
Calm down
We need the money, El
I know but please calm down
Sandra, Elsa, let's try our luck somewhere else
Let Hendry bear his own karma
Alright, thats enough
Why dont you guys tidy up?
I will pass the key to the landlord
Whatever
What now then?
We are jobless and left without any compensation
Can we survive just on mom's dumplings?
El, dont worry as long as I am here
I will do anything to provide for Mom and you
But its exhausting to do labor work
Day in and day out, but not getting paid for it
Well, thats life, El
It doesnt always come easy
You know what, lets stop doing all this labor work
I'll get down to acting
When is the next audition?
In two days
Alright
How do you feel having a famous sister like Elsa Anindita?
Well, not a really big deal for me
I see
What is she like at home? Any weird habits?
Yeah, she likes to paint the walls when shes sad
Imagine when shes very sad, the whole house would look so colorful
Is that so?
Mom, why are you still
Mrs RTs order, right? Let me help out
Yeah, there is a lot more. Will you do the boxes?
Okay
Hi Mom, when are they picking it up?
At dawn
Eating dumplings at dawn?
Theyre bringing it to Bandung for a family function
To Bandung? So funny!
Dont they have dumplings in Bandung?
Exactly. We should be grateful for the orders
Ouch!
Mom?
What happened?
Are you alright, Mom?
Oh my goodness, how did this happen?
Nothing
Im fine, my fingers are used to it
Lets get a new steamer with a transparent cover
Its easier to peek inside
Look at me
A transparent cover that won't burn your hands
Dont underestimate my old pan
It has cooked thousands of dumplings
The best dumplings in the world
Made by the best mom in the world
We are the coolest family in the world
Its late
Youre the one who started it
It costs so much
We have no choice, look at moms hands
Can we afford it?
We can pay by installments
But we have no more income
El, trust me
When there is a will, there is a way
I know I could be selfish and insensitive to others
But I love you
Will you give me another chance?
I will do anything to fix it
Please forgive me?
Were done
Shes done? Next
What happens next?
Well be in touch
What was your name again?
Did you see that?
Can you get me someone with a better attitude next time?
Id rather have a bad actor with a good attitude
El, let it go, it is their loss
I am sure you will get a much better role
Look, theres another audition
This role is very specific
What is it?
Casting for a singer, send a video of yourself singing
Help me please, Sis
Elsa, you are so dependent on your sister
What are you going to do without her?
Without Sandra? I think Ill die
Really?
What? Stop talking nonsense
Dont worry, one day I will be so rich and famous
You wont have to work another day in your life
Ill be the sole breadwinner
Dont be overconfident
Do you think its that easy to become famous?
Mom, I truly believe in Elsa
She can make her dreams come true
Mom, why cant you be more supportive like her?
Yes Mom, you should be supportive like me
Yeah I should - You should
Let's help out
You dont want these pictures in frame, right?
Ready?
What are you doing with the guitar? Dont use it
I dont want to fake it
Fake? Shes an actress now, Mom
What is your song?
The song she wrote when she was heartbroken
What's his name?
I know, Ivan from Jalan Besar?
No way!
It must be Hajis grandson Jojo, right?
Give me a break
Stop it, let's start
Sis, put down the guitar
I know
You know how to use it, right?
Of course, your mother is not that old school
Okay
But don't be mad if my hands are shaky
This way? The other way? Im ready
On three, take a deep breath
If I ever made a mistake
And hurt you
If you ever think
That I can go on without you
Forgive me
My mistake
Forgive me
For my vanity
I dont want to
Move forward without you by my side
My heart would stop
Without you
And I cant go on
What do you think, sir?
Beautiful with an amazing voice, the full package
I am confident she is the star weve been searching for
You and your confidence
Look at what happened to Michael
His album flopped, I had to bear a huge loss
Not to mention the film you produced
Remember the low admissions?
But it will be different this time
I don't want a newcomer as the lead actress
How about this? Make her a singer
We will take it from there if it's successful
Deal?
Save it, the important thing is you need to make it
I am tired of your flops
If this flops, youll be no good in Big Entertainment
Yes, sir
This is it, right?
Yes
This is it, right?
Yes
Excuse me?
How can I help you?
Is this where Elsa Anindita lives?
Elsas family rents the house in the back alley
Thank you
Welcome
Damn it! Lets get out of here
Are you here to pick up your order?
Hold on
Sis, theyre here to pick up dumplings
May I come in?
Let me introduce myself
My name is Bayu, producer of Big Entertainment
You are perfect for the role
But our management won't let a newcomer be the lead
I will make you a singer to become popular first
But I cant sing
Yes, I know, I saw that earlier
Well, you can sing, just not as good as
My sister Sandra
Anyway, I have a plan
Whats your name again?
Elsa
Right, Elsa
You want to be an actress, right?
Yes, sir
You will start as a singer, using your sisters voice
She will be the ghost singer. What do you think?
Im sorry, but Im not sure I get it
Elsa will perform on stage
Sandra will sing backstage
Is that possible?
Would you like to upload your audition video on YouTube and see the response?
Excuse us, Mr Bayu
We'll have a private discussion if you dont mind
Sure
Boss, thats too dangerous
What do you think?
I want to know what you think, Mom
Well, it really depends on the two of you
I really want to try, Mom. What about you, Sandra?
I am uncomfortable because we are lying to people
Come on, at least we are not hurting anyone
This is a once in a lifetime opportunity
Please? For us? For me?
We dont really have anything else right now
We can t survive just on dumplings, right?
Yeah?
Boss, are you sure with this?
What can I do?
Tell Mr Dewo she cant sing and Im wrong again?
You heard it yourselves, this is my last chance
Mom, look, the likes are pouring in! Im so happy
Where is it, show me?
Bayu was right, Mom
I still cant imagine if we've to perform live on stage
Relax, I am sure Mr Bayu has this planned carefully
Come on, Sis, hurry up
Welcome to Big Entertainment
Rudy, you must know quite a number of superstars?
Not really, just the ones under Big Entertainment
All of them are practically under Big Entertainment
Are you done, Mike?
Yeah, bye!
Sis, thats Michael Nara
Are you a fan of Michael?
Back then, not anymore
Yes, I am still a fan of Michael Nara
You've made the changes?
Yes, Boss
Elsa and Sandra are here
Morning
Please have a seat
This is your contract agreement
Important things you both need to remember
You are not allowed to be seen in public together
El
Yes, sir
Sandras voice belongs to Elsa now
I believe in both of you
Millions of hopes
As high as the star
As vast as the ocean
Limitless
Big or small
Right or wrong
Thats the challenge and the expectations
I'm really sticking my neck out doing this
The company will sue me if they find out
Dont let me down, we are in this together
No one else should know what we are doing
Only the five of us in this room
What about the stage crew?
Leave it to Nabila and Rudy
Come on, please
Welcome to Big Entertainment
Thank you
Thank you
Yeah, right
Stop rambling, I got you here to meet the reporters
You got me as a sideshow to a newcomer
What a joke!
Are you sure you want to sing at the launch of a new artist?
None of your new artists ever really made it anyway
I have confidence in her
This is the last time
My next appearance will only be for my next album
Did you forget about the last one that flopped?
Take it out on your marketing team, not me
Mike
I have always been by your side
But youve got to cut this crap...
if you still want to be in Big Entertainment
People keep saying that Im only dreaming
Its only my Imagination
People keep saying thats impossible
San
Lets practice inside. Be more discreet
Sorry, I forgot
Its okay
That is a lot of equipment
Welcome to showbiz
Ill do the sound check on stage
Thank you
Please double check to make sure everything is good to go
Everything is ready
Sandra, two things for you
This one is an in-ear monitor
...to listen to your own voice and the music on stage
This is a walkie...
...for you to communicate with me, Nabila and Elsa
Walkie
In-ear, okay
Alright, Ill put them here
When this screen is on, you can see Elsa from here
Okay
Sandra, heres for you
For me?
But Im just a backstage ghost singer
No one is going to care what I wear
I do care
Let me go check on Elsa
Elsa, calm down, Elsa. calm down. Can I do this?
Elsa, there you are, lets go!
Hair and make-up are waiting for you
Where is Sandra?
Sandra is on standby with Rudy
Can I quickly see her?
You can see her after the show, relax
You are well prepared, come on!
Alright, I just need five more minutes
Okay, Ill wait inside
Elsa, calm down
Alright, bye
Youre
Hey, you are nervous?
Michael Nara?
Elsa Anindita?
How did you know?
Of course, I know who you are
Your posters are at every corner of this place
I heard your name being mentioned like 1,999 times
Are you going to watch me perform?
Yes
Oh gosh, what should I do now?
Here
What is that?
Hold onto this
It will take away your nervousness
But this is just a stone
Not just a stone, this is my lucky charm
Youre right, I feel better now
Good luck
Hey, your lucky charm
You can have it, I dont need it
Ladies and gentlemen
This is the moment we have all been waiting for
Shortly we will get to see Elsas first live performance
Singing her new single "Ku Takkan Berhenti"
Lets give a warm welcome for Elsa Anindita
Elsa, Im right here
Relax, we can do this
Because we are the coolest sisters in the world
Sandra, are you ready?
Yes, Im ready
Music standby... music on
I close my eyes
There are oceans of chances in front of me
Million of hopes
As high as the star
As vast as the ocean
Limitless
Big or small
Right or wrong
Thats the challenge and the expectations
Win or lose
What do you think, sir?
I wont give up
I will keep on going
People keep saying that Im only dreaming
Its only my imagination
People keep saying thats impossible
But I wont stop
People keep saying that Im only dreaming
I told you Im right this time
Its only my imagination
People keep saying thats impossible
But I wont stop
And I wont stop
I will keep on going
And I wont stop
I will keep on going
I wont give up
I will keep on going
People keep saying that Im only dreaming
Its only my imagination
People keep saying thats impossible
But I wont stop
Excuse me, maam, where should I put this?
Just leave it there
Ti, look, thats Elsa on TV
Isnt she beautiful?
So beautiful
People keep saying thats impossible
But I wont stop

We Love You, Elsa, We Love you
Gosh! Im so happy
People keep saying that Im only dreaming
Its only my imagination
People keep saying thats impossible
But I wont stop
People keep saying that Im only dreaming
Its only my Imagination
People keep saying thats impossible
But I wont stop
I wont stop
Mike
Why dont you try acting?
Since your singing career hits a wall
I'm not interested
Well
I want a duet with Elsa
No
Why her?
Why not?
Mike, listen carefully
I dont need you to push Elsa's career
She is already there where you have been
This is where you are right now
This is where you are right now
Its not my fault nor Big Entertainments
Its not my fault nor Big Entertainments
Its yours
Well, I have something for you
What?
This is about Elsa, no not just Elsa
But also you and your whole team who are there
and suddenly
Excuse me
She must be really happy
You too, right?
Where is Sandra?
Shes with Rudy in another car
Wow
Do I look pretty in that article?
Of course... a widow with one child
That's Bayus idea
He said I must say that to the reporter
Are you sleeping in my room?
Can I?
I can sense somebody wants something
I will be doing a duet with Michael Nara
What do you mean?
Bayu asked me and I said yes
I am telling you and asking you at the same time
El, singing a duet is not easy
What if he finds out?
I know but it's Michael Nara
Fine
Thanks Sis!
Im sorry for not asking you first
One more thing I want to apologize to you
The article did not mention you as my sister
But our late father was also omitted
Do you even remember what hes like?
If he were alive, I'm sure he would not let us do this
Its okay, I totally understand it was Bayus decision
He is like a god to you and Mom, right?
What are you talking about? I do this for all of us
Lately I feel like everythings changed
As if I didn't exist
Dont say that
I am nothing without you, you know that
Whatever you ask for I will give it to you
What if I ask you to quit?
But we signed an agreement
What's more important to you, the contract or fame?
Here you go, El
Thats a lot. What are they for?
Merchandise for radio stations
Youre done with these? -Yeah
Let's go, Bayu is waiting for us
Where is Sandra?
They cant be seen in public together, remember?
But its just us
Nabila, send the song to Elsa for her to practice
Hey, San
Meet Michael Nara
Hi Sandra
Hello Mike
Elsas sister? Are you also a singer?
Have a seat please, San
We are making a new album for Elsa
One of the singles is a duet with Michael Nara
It will be launched first as my new single
Yes
We have decided to go with "Ku Takkan Berhenti"
Rudy told me Elsa's fans want the audition song
San, that song belongs to you, right?
That's right
For the hit single we can ask for Melly or Yovie
Boss, we can use Sandras song as the hit single?
Of course not, its not catchy enough
We could have used it at the beginning if we wanted to but the song didnt sell, right?
Alright then, I got to go
Ill see you at the recording studio
Right, me too. I need to sign more posters
Bye Elsa
Bye
Sir, I still have more new songs
That's not necessary, one song is enough
Your job is to sing
Dont be greedy to take over everything
Excuse me, Boss
Did you really have to be that harsh?
Do you have a crush on her or something?
I am down with flu, see the mask?
Wearing a mask at home?
I dont want to pass it to anyone
When is your recording if not with me today?
I should feel better tomorrow
Im going to Bandung tomorrow for my parents grave
I know
Alright then, Ill wait for you here at the studio?
I really want us to record a session together
Gosh, what am I going to do?
Sis, what do I do?
I told you, right?
Why did you agree on this without asking me first?
Did you forget that Im the one who sings?
But wait, Sis, please help me out
Michael is waiting for me at the studio
Please help me, Sis
Mike, what are you waiting for?
What do you mean? I am waiting for Elsa
Just start without her, ready?
Elsa?
Okay, ready?
Come on
Were you listening to our song?
Yeah, I came up here to listen to get a feel for it
Have you listened to it?
I have
What do you think? Did you like it?
Very much
Me too, but you know the second chorus
When I
Because of you my love
I can love myself
Just the way I am
I will always love you
You are supposed to
Hic sorry
Are you okay?
Im sorry, does this cure hiccups too?
You still have it
Of course, its my lucky charm now
Where are we going?
Just follow me
Ill be riding a bike with Michael Nara
It's okay, we have a duet together
Yeah? Siti Nurhaliza did a duet with Tulus too
But I'm sure they never rode a bike together
Elsa, wait
Rud, where did you and Sandra go?
Here we are
What is this place?
This is where I work on weekends
But this isnt the weekend
I usually volunteer here every Saturday and Sunday
This is an orphanage for kids with disabilities
They need entertainment
Hi Rud, you just got here?
I brought a friend. I hope thats alright
Of course, come on in
Mike, where are we going?
Take it easy
Is it a crowded place?
You're afraid of being surrounded by fans?
Dont worry, it's safe
Come on guys, come out here with me and Sandra
It's Dikas birthday
Come and get a present from us
This one for you?
I know you'll like this
Play with your new toys
Later come back here for Sandras singing, yeah?
Singing?
Singing?
You can't be a backstage singer forever
You can't be a backstage singer forever
Over here, the stage is all yours
But Bayu will kill me if he finds out
No one will find out
These kids won't tell
If Bayu ever finds out, he will kill me first
Hell then go to jail for that
That means he wont be able to kill you
Are you worth the wait?
Are you beautiful enough for the wait?
Can you be there in each of my nightmares?
Can we survive the time apart?
How terrific are you for me to brag about?
Are you invincible enough for me to always rely on you?
Can you survive living in my sad life
Can you convince me when I am full of doubt?
Sadly youre the only one I long for
Youre the only one who really understands me
You went away as and when you like
Sadly youre the only one who makes me proud
Youre the only one I can rely on
In every grief I will be waiting
You might be gone without a trace
Burying all the beautiful memories
But I will always wait for you
In case you change your mind
Sadly youre the only one I long for
Youre the only one who really understands me
You went away as and when you like
Sadly youre the only one who makes me proud
Youre the only one I can rely on
In every grief I will be waiting
Sadly youre the only one I long for
Youre the only one who really understands me
You went away as and when you like
Sadly youre the only one who makes me proud
You were out of your mind? You can't think?
Youre lucky that Nabila took care of this
It was deleted straight away
I had to pay a lot of money to cover it
You have broken the contract agreement
But this is not my fault
Im talking to your sister
Sis
Are you trying to ruin your sisters career?
You are lucky it hasnt gone viral
This is a warning for you, San
If this happens again
Boss
Quiet
Now get ready for Superstars press conference
I have asked Mr Dewo to give you a role
You want to be an actress, right?
See, I always keep my words
I expect the same from both of you
Don't break the contract
We are in this together
What is Elsas role in this movie?
She will play a newcomer alongside Pia who is also a singer
Elsa is so talented
I'm sure she has a bright future
What do you think, Giorgino?
I totally agree, shes gonna be big one day I'm sure
Mr Bayu, what is the premise of the movie?
You can get it in our press release
Im so glad for this opportunity
This is a huge project
Hold on
Did you do it on purpose?
Because you don't want to sing for me anymore?
No, honey
What are you doing?
You know we cant be seen together in public
Elsa, can we interview you?
Sis, don't break the contract
San
Rudy, I want to leave
But you are here
I did all this for Elsa and my mom
But I cant do it anymore
It's like I didn't exist for the audience
I didn't exist for Elsa and my mom
My Love, My Sweet love
Can you feel my love for you?
Isnt this Sandras turn?
It is
Where is she? Call Rudy
Hold on, Boss
Should I want you
Elsa, I do this for you
Because I love you
Just be yourself my love
Love yourself just the way you are
For who you are
Because of you my love
I can love myself
Just the way I am
I will always love you
My love, my sweet love
Can you feel my love for you?
My love, my dear
I want you to know
Whats inside my heart
Should I want you?
Do you want me to
Chase your shadows?
Just be yourself my love
Love yourself just the way you are
For who you are
Because of you my love
I can love myself
Just the way I am
I will always love you
Love yourself just the way you are
For who you are
Because of you my love
I can love myself
Just the way I am
I will always love you
Hi
Hey, I thought you left
Not yet
You want to send me home with your bike?
I want to but it's midnight
Bayu might kill me
Elsa, I am heading out
Thank you
Mike, were you happy with our performance?
Very much. What about you?
Yes, but sorry for the start
I think my mic was broken
Its okay. Its a new song.
The audience might not even notice
Yeah but I feel
It's common to have technical issues on stage
Whats important is a good performance and happy audience
Dont think too much about it
Elsa Anindita
Michael Nara
Thank you for this
El, Ill head out
Lets go
Where is Rudy?
He is sending Bayu home
Youre hitching a ride from me?
Look at that, Mom
Rud, its impossible for him not to notice this
He didnt say anything
Look closely
Sis, relax. He would have said something to me...
...if he was suspicious, but he seemed fine
He would know if hes a good singer
I dont care as long as hes nice to me
I like him, hes cute
That has nothing to do with his skills as a singer
That has nothing to do with his skills as a singer
Sis, I was joking
Sis, I was joking
I dont like seeing you so stressed out like this
Stop it! Its not funny
My duet with Michael will boost my career
Remember? The one that you almost ruin?
Enough, the both of you
Enough, the both of you
Sandra, did you apologize to Elsa...
Sandra, did you apologize to Elsa...
...for what happened at the orphanage?
Apologize? Does she even know what it means?
Im tired, Mom.
Rud, I want to quit
Will you stop being so selfish?
Im selfish?
Have you ever thought of anyone other than yourself?
We made this decision together
Why youre like the only one suffering?
You dont think Im tired too?
Are you saying youre tired of...
...the love and praises from so many people?
Getting superstar treatments everywhere you go
You're suffering? Tell me about it
You want special treatments too?
You are jealous of me?
Why would I be jealous of you?
A singer who cant even sing
Youre a singer whos never gone on stage
Ghost singer
We're the most miserable family in the whole world
Rud, get me out of here
Excuse me, maam
Elsa, lets get ready, it's late
Mike, thank you for being here
Ill check on Bayu and have a smoke outside
What's wrong?
You were freaking out over the phone
I just had a fight with Sandra
Isnt that common? Sisters fight, right?
Mike
What if you're losing your fame?
Those times were long gone
Im fine as long as I could still sing
How would you feel about singing without an audience?
Id love to have an audience of course
But I cant force people to like my work
What is it?
I never really liked singing
My real passion is acting
Arent we acting when we are on stage?
I mean when were on stage
we have to look happy for the audience
Once up there, we cant rely on anyone or anything
I still rely on this
This is fake
Dont rely on it
Singing on stage is the only way I don't feel lonely
Once offstage, I dont really have anyone else
Unlike you, you have your mother and Sandra
I want to tell you something
Elsa, one more minute on standby
Mike, where are you going?
Is one minute enough?
But I really got to tell you this
You can tell me later, I have to go now
I dont want to bump into Bayu
Alright then, give me back my fake lucky charm
Many things in this world are fake, too many
Mike, you are not alone
You have me
Thank you for the home band
Good evening, gorgeous
Good evening
Let me get right to it
Youre about to release a new album
Your hit single was a huge success
How do you feel?
The album is in progress, I am happy and excited
I am happy for you too. Arent you all?
Let's give her a round of applause
Beautiful and talented
Thank you
You made sure this is just an interview?
Yes
Then why are you so anxious?
Rudy and Sandra are not answering their phones
How many times do I have to say this?
Don't get Sandra involved in this sort of things
But you know Elsa cant be away from her sister
She can be and she will be
She can be and she will be
Rumor has it that in your upcoming album...
Rumor has it that in your upcoming album...
you have one original song
The one that you wrote for the audition of the movie Superstar
Yes, thats right
Thats your original song, right?
Yes, thats right
That is amazing! Dont you guys love that song?
Yeah
I am sure not only me but the audience too...
would love to hear you sing live, right?
Why dont you sing a bit for us here in the studio?
Sing?
You really have a beautiful voice
Let us hear it live, right now
Just a bit
Lets give it to Elsa
Let me call you back
Nab, do something!
I dont know what to do
Elsa, just a bit
Sing! Sing!
Come on, Elsa
Elsa! Elsa!
Come on, Elsa
Please
Just a bit
Are you ready?
But I wasnt briefed
It's okay, just a bit for us
Okay, ready?
Everybody, ready?
Okay
Watch out!
Elsa! Elsa!
I am from Big Entertainment, I am the producer
Sorry but you cant interrupt the live show
Oh my goodness, cut!
Yes, Nab. Whats wrong with Elsa?
What happened?
Elsa passed out during the talk show
Elsa, what happened?
I am fine, Mom
Elsa, I am worried
I am fine! Nabila, you may leave
There was a bit of trouble, but its all good now
Elsas things are here
Thank you
Thanks Rud. Why dont you go home?
Elsa is inside
Thanks, Nab
Sandra, where were you?
Mom, let me deal with Elsa
San... Sandra
Elsa
Elsa
Open the door
What do you want?
Elsa, open the door please
I am fine
Just open the door
Hold on
Get away from me
Where are you going?
Going out
Wait! Where are you going? The driver has left
I know
Elsa, wait a minute
Elsa
Wait, Elsa!
What do you want?
Where do you want to go?
Let her be. Shell come back
She cant be away from her sister for too long
Where is she going, Mom?
Sandra
Forgive me
Your father left us with huge debts after his death
It should be my responsibility
But it has become yours to support the family
Dont say that, Mom
It is my responsibility as the eldest child
Sandra
I know you would do anything for Elsa
For you too
Honey, I know
Being Elsas ghost singer was never easy for you
Its unfair for you
Im sorry for not stopping you guys
Its not your fault, Mom
I thought I was strong enough to do this...
...for the only sister I love so much, but I am not
You are not Elsas shadow but you are her reflection
She looks up to you since she was a child
She adores you very much
You are the heart of the family
Without you, we could never move on
What should I do if you become an actress?
Your manager, what else?
No, a singer
That dream is long gone
Why? You dont just give up on your dreams
I still hear you sing all the time
You even write your own songs
But without an audience, just you and Mom
True but it's okay. We need to dream big
One thing for sure
You will still be my sister if I become famous
She wet the bed again
My goodness, you will sleep in the bathroom tonight
No, I dont want to sleep in the bathroom
No, I dont want to sleep in the bathroom
Then stop wetting the bed
Then stop wetting the bed
Your mom has changed the bedsheet twice
Stop scolding her, Dad
Its okay, Ill sleep in the bathroom with you
I dont mean to meddle in your familys business
But let me remind you, Elsa owes me three albums
Come on, San, at least finish the first one
We would like to terminate the contract, sir
No, you cant
You signed the contract, you gave the consent
Dont blame her for this
Its no ones fault, cut the drama
It is my fault, San
Let me tell you whats going to happen
I want Sandra to continue singing but as herself
and Elsa to continue with her acting career
It's not that simple
You think the public will easily forgive us for the lie?
I can assure you
Elsas career is doomed forever if it's made public
Dont even think of Sandra becoming a singer
Come on, there is no turning back now
Were in this together
San? See you in the recording studio
Well, look whos back
Good, still beautiful and marketable
Why dont you take a rest for the week?
I told the media that you fainted because of fatigue
The game is still on, ladies
Bayu is right, its no ones fault
Mike
What are you doing here?
Did you spend the night here?
Why dont you go home and sleep?
Is Elsa coming in for the recording?
No, shes still unwell, resting at home
Ucok went out for lunch, he will be back shortly
No worries, we just want to listen to Elsas final mix
What on earth was he doing here?
Do you think he heard us?
Elsa has a crush on him
Lets start the recording
Rud
Do you want to know what I want the most right now?
What is it?
Hi
Lets go
You faked your fainting?
Yeah
Okay
Arent you going to ask why?
To tell you the truth, it was never me
I have been using Sandras voice
I am serious
I knew all this
When I accidentally saw her singing
At the orphanage?
Orphanage? No, backstage
During your first performance
Well
I threatened Bayu to get a duet between us
Or I will tell the public that Elsa Anindita cant sing
You have no proof
I recorded a conversation...
...between Sandra and Rudy backstage
You did!
I know, I screwed up
I thought nothing else would matter as long as...
...I can continue with my singing career
But I was wrong
Nothing really matters if I have to lose you
Will you forgive me?
Elsa, dont go
Maybe you should be left alone
So you cant hurt someone who cares about you
Done, Ive deleted them all
Great, what's your plan?
I dont know, it's none of your business
Frankly I hated you so much for blackmailing me
But now I feel sorry for you
Youre willing to go that low to save your career
Why dont you take a look at yourself...
...and reflect on what youve done to save yourself?
Michael Nara quits Big Entertainment
Shocking news to the Indonesian music industry
Mike fell out with Big Entertainment producer Bayu
Elsa, what made Michael Nara leave?
I am not quite sure about that, sorry
What about your relationship with Michael Nara?
Are you guys still together?
I have no comment on that
How is the prep for your next concert Pretty El?
Its in progress, I kindly ask for your support
Thank you
Elsa, were leaving, bye
Thank you
Nab, do you have an older sister?
Yes, many
Younger sister?
Also, many
My dad married three times and my mom twice
I only have one sister
Shes been taken care of me all her life
She always puts me first
...including this to make my dream come true
Elsa
It was me, I filmed Sandra singing at the orphanage
I followed them
The YouTube post was fake
It was set to private so no one could see it
This was all Bayus idea to scare you and Sandra
I hope you can forgive me, Elsa
I can go home by myself
Are you mad?
Yes, I am pissed
But not at you, Mom, Sandra or even Bayu
Alright then, Ill leave you alone
Nabila
Mike, Im busy
I have a favor to ask
What do you want?
It's urgent
Elsa, I just ran into Mike
He asked me to pass you this
Please check his messages from this afternoon
Ill do it later
Its urgent, Mike said
Hi El, I wish both you and Sandra...
...the best of luck for tonights show
I would like to share something with you
This is more important than my confession
I overheard Sandra and Rudy talking in the studio
Do you want to know what I want the most right now?
What is it?
I wish God could take my voice and give it to Elsa
I think its important for you to know about this
- San, all good? -Yeah
Wow
Finally
Do you like it?
Yes, you look beautiful
Rud, a moment please, it's urgent
Cant you use the walkie?
Hurry! Come out here please
Sorry, Ill be back
What is it?
San
There's a slight change for the opening
Elsa will give an opening speech for the fans
Got it
But the first song will still be the same, right?
That's right
Ill give you a cue
Okay
Ladies and gentlemen, please welcome Elsa Anindita!
Good evening, everyone
I would like to thank you all for coming here tonight
Before we begin
I would like to share with you a little bit about myself
Do you remember the song Melangkah (Moving Forward)?
Yes
I first sang that song for a movie audition
Thats the first time you saw me
The song was written by my sister
Sandra
Rud, whats happening?
She wrote Melangkah
She not only wrote the song
But she has been the one singing it
This must be part of the show
She sings all my songs
All my songs
What you have been listening to is not my voice
It is her voice
Rud, this is not funny
Follow me
Where are we going?
Where are we going?
Just follow me, Ill explain later
Just follow me, Ill explain later
What about Elsa?
Forgive me
Forgive me for lying to all of you
If thats the case, we better cancel all our deals
If thats the case, we better cancel all our deals
Dont do this, I can explain
Dont do this, I can explain
Wait, this is part of the show
I thought this was the only way to achieve my dream
Now I realized this means nothing if I reach my dreams
But I have to lose my sister whom I love very much
Sandra
Tonight
I want all of you to hear and see the truth
If I ever made a mistake
And hurt you
If you ever think
I could go on without you
Forgive me
For my mistake
Forgive me
For my vanity
Sandra Anandara
Come on, Sis
Lets prove it to them
Lets sing with me for the first and maybe the last time
I dont want to
Move forward without you by my side
My heart would stop
Without you
And I cant go on
Cant move without your love
Im longing for your love
Hear my plea
Please help me
Strengthened me
Never leave me
I want the world to know
All that I am is because of you
I dont want to
Move forward without you by my side
Feels like my heart would stop beating
Without you
And I cant go on
Cant move on without your love
Im longing for your love
Hear my plea
My prayer
That you always by my side
And I wont be afraid of anything
I dont want to
Move forward without you by my side
My children
Feels like my heart would stop beating
Without you
And I cant go on
Cant move on without your love
Im longing for your love
I promise
To be the one that you want to
To be the one that you hope for
This is my prayer
I remember
The way you glanced at me, yes I remember
I remember
When we caught a shooting star, yes I remember
I remember
All the things that we shared, and all the promise we made, just you and I
I remember
All the laughter we shared, all the wishes we made,
upon the roof at dawn
Do you remember?
When we were dancing in the rain in that December
And I remember
When our father thought you were a burglar
I remember
All the things that we shared, and the promise we made, just you and I
I remember
All the laughter we shared,
all the wishes we made, upon the roof at dawn
Yes I remember
The way you read your books
Yes I remember. -I remember
The way you tied your shoes. Yes I remember.
When we were dancing in the rain in that December
And the way you smile at me
Yes I remember
Amazing
Well be out of job
You can still sing your heart out
Samsul, this is the art of enjoying life
Elsa, you need money to enjoy life
Look at the cafe
Today is the last day but no one is here
At least we will still be compensated
I think you don't get it
What is it?
The landlord came looking for Mr Hendry
He seems to be missing for a week
Yeah?
How can we get our pay? The guy is gone
But we need our last paycheck and compensation
We all need it, not just you
You're not kidding me?
What a jerk!
Lets find Hendry and get our money
Sandra, come on, where can we find him?
The whole world is looking for him
But we need the money
Calm down
We need the money, El
I know but please calm down
Sandra, Elsa, let's try our luck somewhere else
Let Hendry bear his own karma
Alright, thats enough
Why dont you guys tidy up?
I will pass the key to the landlord
Whatever
What now then?
We are jobless and left without any compensation
Can we survive just on mom's dumplings?
El, dont worry as long as I am here
I will do anything to provide for Mom and you
But its exhausting to do labor work
Day in and day out, but not getting paid for it
Well, thats life, El
It doesnt always come easy
You know what, lets stop doing all this labor work
I'll get down to acting
When is the next audition?
In two days
Alright
How do you feel having a famous sister like Elsa Anindita?
Well, not a really big deal for me
I see
What is she like at home? Any weird habits?
Yeah, she likes to paint the walls when shes sad
Imagine when shes very sad, the whole house would look so colorful
Is that so?
Mom, why are you still
Mrs RTs order, right? Let me help out
Yeah, there is a lot more. Will you do the boxes?
Okay
Hi Mom, when are they picking it up?
At dawn
Eating dumplings at dawn?
Theyre bringing it to Bandung for a family function
To Bandung? So funny!
Dont they have dumplings in Bandung?
Exactly. We should be grateful for the orders
Ouch!
Mom?
What happened?
Are you alright, Mom?
Oh my goodness, how did this happen?
Nothing
Im fine, my fingers are used to it
Lets get a new steamer with a transparent cover
Its easier to peek inside
Look at me
A transparent cover that won't burn your hands
Dont underestimate my old pan
It has cooked thousands of dumplings
The best dumplings in the world
Made by the best mom in the world
We are the coolest family in the world
Its late
Youre the one who started it
It costs so much
We have no choice, look at moms hands
Can we afford it?
We can pay by installments
But we have no more income
El, trust me
When there is a will, there is a way
I know I could be selfish and insensitive to others
But I love you
Will you give me another chance?
I will do anything to fix it
Please forgive me?
Were done
Shes done? Next
What happens next?
Well be in touch
What was your name again?
Did you see that?
Can you get me someone with a better attitude next time?
Id rather have a bad actor with a good attitude
El, let it go, it is their loss
I am sure you will get a much better role
Look, theres another audition
This role is very specific
What is it?
Casting for a singer, send a video of yourself singing
Help me please, Sis
Elsa, you are so dependent on your sister
What are you going to do without her?
Without Sandra? I think Ill die
Really?
What? Stop talking nonsense
Dont worry, one day I will be so rich and famous
You wont have to work another day in your life
Ill be the sole breadwinner
Dont be overconfident
Do you think its that easy to become famous?
Mom, I truly believe in Elsa
She can make her dreams come true
Mom, why cant you be more supportive like her?
Yes Mom, you should be supportive like me
Yeah I should - You should
Let's help out
You dont want these pictures in frame, right?
Ready?
What are you doing with the guitar? Dont use it
I dont want to fake it
Fake? Shes an actress now, Mom
What is your song?
The song she wrote when she was heartbroken
What's his name?
I know, Ivan from Jalan Besar?
No way!
It must be Hajis grandson Jojo, right?
Give me a break
Stop it, let's start
Sis, put down the guitar
I know
You know how to use it, right?
Of course, your mother is not that old school
Okay
But don't be mad if my hands are shaky
This way? The other way? Im ready
On three, take a deep breath
If I ever made a mistake
And hurt you
If you ever think
That I can go on without you
Forgive me
My mistake
Forgive me
For my vanity
I dont want to
Move forward without you by my side
My heart would stop
Without you
And I cant go on
What do you think, sir?
Beautiful with an amazing voice, the full package
I am confident she is the star weve been searching for
You and your confidence
Look at what happened to Michael
His album flopped, I had to bear a huge loss
Not to mention the film you produced
Remember the low admissions?
But it will be different this time
I don't want a newcomer as the lead actress
How about this? Make her a singer
We will take it from there if it's successful
Deal?
Save it, the important thing is you need to make it
I am tired of your flops
If this flops, youll be no good in Big Entertainment
Yes, sir
This is it, right?
Yes
This is it, right?
Yes
Excuse me?
How can I help you?
Is this where Elsa Anindita lives?
Elsas family rents the house in the back alley
Thank you
Welcome
Damn it! Lets get out of here
Are you here to pick up your order?
Hold on
Sis, theyre here to pick up dumplings
May I come in?
Let me introduce myself
My name is Bayu, producer of Big Entertainment
You are perfect for the role
But our management won't let a newcomer be the lead
I will make you a singer to become popular first
But I cant sing
Yes, I know, I saw that earlier
Well, you can sing, just not as good as
My sister Sandra
Anyway, I have a plan
Whats your name again?
Elsa
Right, Elsa
You want to be an actress, right?
Yes, sir
You will start as a singer, using your sisters voice
She will be the ghost singer. What do you think?
Im sorry, but Im not sure I get it
Elsa will perform on stage
Sandra will sing backstage
Is that possible?
Would you like to upload your audition video on YouTube and see the response?
Excuse us, Mr Bayu
We'll have a private discussion if you dont mind
Sure
Boss, thats too dangerous
What do you think?
I want to know what you think, Mom
Well, it really depends on the two of you
I really want to try, Mom. What about you, Sandra?
I am uncomfortable because we are lying to people
Come on, at least we are not hurting anyone
This is a once in a lifetime opportunity
Please? For us? For me?
We dont really have anything else right now
We can t survive just on dumplings, right?
Yeah?
Boss, are you sure with this?
What can I do?
Tell Mr Dewo she cant sing and Im wrong again?
You heard it yourselves, this is my last chance
Mom, look, the likes are pouring in! Im so happy
Where is it, show me?
Bayu was right, Mom
I still cant imagine if we've to perform live on stage
Relax, I am sure Mr Bayu has this planned carefully
Come on, Sis, hurry up
Welcome to Big Entertainment
Rudy, you must know quite a number of superstars?
Not really, just the ones under Big Entertainment
All of them are practically under Big Entertainment
Are you done, Mike?
Yeah, bye!
Sis, thats Michael Nara
Are you a fan of Michael?
Back then, not anymore
Yes, I am still a fan of Michael Nara
You've made the changes?
Yes, Boss
Elsa and Sandra are here
Morning
Please have a seat
This is your contract agreement
Important things you both need to remember
You are not allowed to be seen in public together
El
Yes, sir
Sandras voice belongs to Elsa now
I believe in both of you
Millions of hopes
As high as the star
As vast as the ocean
Limitless
Big or small
Right or wrong
Thats the challenge and the expectations
I'm really sticking my neck out doing this
The company will sue me if they find out
Dont let me down, we are in this together
No one else should know what we are doing
Only the five of us in this room
What about the stage crew?
Leave it to Nabila and Rudy
Come on, please
Welcome to Big Entertainment
Thank you
Thank you
Yeah, right
Stop rambling, I got you here to meet the reporters
You got me as a sideshow to a newcomer
What a joke!
Are you sure you want to sing at the launch of a new artist?
None of your new artists ever really made it anyway
I have confidence in her
This is the last time
My next appearance will only be for my next album
Did you forget about the last one that flopped?
Take it out on your marketing team, not me
Mike
I have always been by your side
But youve got to cut this crap...
if you still want to be in Big Entertainment
People keep saying that Im only dreaming
Its only my Imagination
People keep saying thats impossible
San
Lets practice inside. Be more discreet
Sorry, I forgot
Its okay
That is a lot of equipment
Welcome to showbiz
Ill do the sound check on stage
Thank you
Please double check to make sure everything is good to go
Everything is ready
Sandra, two things for you
This one is an in-ear monitor
...to listen to your own voice and the music on stage
This is a walkie...
...for you to communicate with me, Nabila and Elsa
Walkie
In-ear, okay
Alright, Ill put them here
When this screen is on, you can see Elsa from here
Okay
Sandra, heres for you
For me?
But Im just a backstage ghost singer
No one is going to care what I wear
I do care
Let me go check on Elsa
Elsa, calm down, Elsa. calm down. Can I do this?
Elsa, there you are, lets go!
Hair and make-up are waiting for you
Where is Sandra?
Sandra is on standby with Rudy
Can I quickly see her?
You can see her after the show, relax
You are well prepared, come on!
Alright, I just need five more minutes
Okay, Ill wait inside
Elsa, calm down
Alright, bye
Youre
Hey, you are nervous?
Michael Nara?
Elsa Anindita?
How did you know?
Of course, I know who you are
Your posters are at every corner of this place
I heard your name being mentioned like 1,999 times
Are you going to watch me perform?
Yes
Oh gosh, what should I do now?
Here
What is that?
Hold onto this
It will take away your nervousness
But this is just a stone
Not just a stone, this is my lucky charm
Youre right, I feel better now
Good luck
Hey, your lucky charm
You can have it, I dont need it
Ladies and gentlemen
This is the moment we have all been waiting for
Shortly we will get to see Elsas first live performance
Singing her new single "Ku Takkan Berhenti"
Lets give a warm welcome for Elsa Anindita
Elsa, Im right here
Relax, we can do this
Because we are the coolest sisters in the world
Sandra, are you ready?
Yes, Im ready
Music standby... music on
I close my eyes
There are oceans of chances in front of me
Million of hopes
As high as the star
As vast as the ocean
Limitless
Big or small
Right or wrong
Thats the challenge and the expectations
Win or lose
What do you think, sir?
I wont give up
I will keep on going
People keep saying that Im only dreaming
Its only my imagination
People keep saying thats impossible
But I wont stop
People keep saying that Im only dreaming
I told you Im right this time
Its only my imagination
People keep saying thats impossible
But I wont stop
And I wont stop

And I wont stop
I will keep on going
I wont give up
I will keep on going
People keep saying that Im only dreaming

Its only my imagination
People keep saying thats impossible
But I wont stop
People keep saying that Im only dreaming
Its only my Imagination
People keep saying thats impossible
But I wont stop
I wont stop
Mike
Why dont you try acting?
Since your singing career hits a wall
I'm not interested
Well
I want a duet with Elsa
No
Why her?
Why not?
Mike, listen carefully
I dont need you to push Elsa's career
She is already there where you have been
This is where you are right now
This is where you are right now
Its not my fault nor Big Entertainments
Its not my fault nor Big Entertainments
Its yours
Well, I have something for you
What?
This is about Elsa, no not just Elsa
But also you and your whole team who are there
and suddenly
Excuse me
She must be really happy
You too, right?
Where is Sandra?
Shes with Rudy in another car
Wow
Do I look pretty in that article?
Of course... a widow with one child
That's Bayus idea
He said I must say that to the reporter
Are you sleeping in my room?
Can I?
I can sense somebody wants something
I will be doing a duet with Michael Nara
What do you mean?
Bayu asked me and I said yes
I am telling you and asking you at the same time
El, singing a duet is not easy
What if he finds out?
I know but it's Michael Nara
Fine
Thanks Sis!
Im sorry for not asking you first
One more thing I want to apologize to you
The article did not mention you as my sister
But our late father was also omitted
Do you even remember what hes like?
If he were alive, I'm sure he would not let us do this
Its okay, I totally understand it was Bayus decision
He is like a god to you and Mom, right?
What are you talking about? I do this for all of us
Lately I feel like everythings changed
As if I didn't exist
Dont say that
I am nothing without you, you know that
Whatever you ask for I will give it to you
What if I ask you to quit?
But we signed an agreement
What's more important to you, the contract or fame?
Here you go, El
Thats a lot. What are they for?
Merchandise for radio stations
Youre done with these? -Yeah
Let's go, Bayu is waiting for us
Where is Sandra?
They cant be seen in public together, remember?
But its just us
Nabila, send the song to Elsa for her to practice
Hey, San
Meet Michael Nara
Hi Sandra
Hello Mike
Elsas sister? Are you also a singer?
Have a seat please, San
We are making a new album for Elsa
One of the singles is a duet with Michael Nara
It will be launched first as my new single
Yes
We have decided to go with "Ku Takkan Berhenti"
Rudy told me Elsa's fans want the audition song
San, that song belongs to you, right?
That's right
For the hit single we can ask for Melly or Yovie
Boss, we can use Sandras song as the hit single?
Of course not, its not catchy enough
We could have used it at the beginning if we wanted to but the song didnt sell, right?
Alright then, I got to go
Ill see you at the recording studio
Right, me too. I need to sign more posters
Bye Elsa
Bye
Sir, I still have more new songs
That's not necessary, one song is enough
Your job is to sing
Dont be greedy to take over everything
Excuse me, Boss
Did you really have to be that harsh?
Do you have a crush on her or something?
I am down with flu, see the mask?
Wearing a mask at home?
I dont want to pass it to anyone
When is your recording if not with me today?
I should feel better tomorrow
Im going to Bandung tomorrow for my parents grave
I know
Alright then, Ill wait for you here at the studio?
I really want us to record a session together
Gosh, what am I going to do?
Sis, what do I do?
I told you, right?
Why did you agree on this without asking me first?
Did you forget that Im the one who sings?
But wait, Sis, please help me out
Michael is waiting for me at the studio
Please help me, Sis
Mike, what are you waiting for?
What do you mean? I am waiting for Elsa
Just start without her, ready?
Elsa?
Okay, ready?
Come on
Were you listening to our song?
Yeah, I came up here to listen to get a feel for it
Have you listened to it?
I have
What do you think? Did you like it?
Very much
Me too, but you know the second chorus
When I
Because of you my love
I can love myself
Just the way I am
I will always love you
You are supposed to
Hic sorry
Are you okay?
Im sorry, does this cure hiccups too?
You still have it
Of course, its my lucky charm now
Where are we going?
Just follow me
Ill be riding a bike with Michael Nara
It's okay, we have a duet together
Yeah? Siti Nurhaliza did a duet with Tulus too
But I'm sure they never rode a bike together
Elsa, wait
Rud, where did you and Sandra go?
Here we are
What is this place?
This is where I work on weekends
But this isnt the weekend
I usually volunteer here every Saturday and Sunday
This is an orphanage for kids with disabilities
They need entertainment
Hi Rud, you just got here?
I brought a friend. I hope thats alright
Of course, come on in
Mike, where are we going?
Take it easy
Is it a crowded place?
You're afraid of being surrounded by fans?
Dont worry, it's safe
Come on guys, come out here with me and Sandra
It's Dikas birthday
Come and get a present from us
This one for you?
I know you'll like this
Play with your new toys
Later come back here for Sandras singing, yeah?
Singing?
Singing?
You can't be a backstage singer forever
You can't be a backstage singer forever
Over here, the stage is all yours
But Bayu will kill me if he finds out
No one will find out
These kids won't tell
If Bayu ever finds out, he will kill me first
Hell then go to jail for that
That means he wont be able to kill you
Are you worth the wait?
Are you beautiful enough for the wait?
Can you be there in each of my nightmares?
Can we survive the time apart?
How terrific are you for me to brag about?
Are you invincible enough for me to always rely on you?
Can you survive living in my sad life
Can you convince me when I am full of doubt?
Sadly youre the only one I long for
Youre the only one who really understands me
You went away as and when you like
Sadly youre the only one who makes me proud
Youre the only one I can rely on
In every grief I will be waiting
You might be gone without a trace
Burying all the beautiful memories
But I will always wait for you
In case you change your mind
Sadly youre the only one I long for
Youre the only one who really understands me
You went away as and when you like
Sadly youre the only one who makes me proud
Youre the only one I can rely on
In every grief I will be waiting
Sadly youre the only one I long for
Youre the only one who really understands me
You went away as and when you like
Sadly youre the only one who makes me proud
You were out of your mind? You can't think?
Youre lucky that Nabila took care of this
It was deleted straight away
I had to pay a lot of money to cover it
You have broken the contract agreement
But this is not my fault
Im talking to your sister
Sis
Are you trying to ruin your sisters career?
You are lucky it hasnt gone viral
This is a warning for you, San
If this happens again
Boss
Quiet
Now get ready for Superstars press conference
I have asked Mr Dewo to give you a role
You want to be an actress, right?
See, I always keep my words
I expect the same from both of you
Don't break the contract
We are in this together
What is Elsas role in this movie?
She will play a newcomer alongside Pia who is also a singer
Elsa is so talented
I'm sure she has a bright future
What do you think, Giorgino?
I totally agree, shes gonna be big one day I'm sure
Mr Bayu, what is the premise of the movie?
You can get it in our press release
Im so glad for this opportunity
This is a huge project
Hold on
Did you do it on purpose?
Because you don't want to sing for me anymore?
No, honey
What are you doing?
You know we cant be seen together in public
Elsa, can we interview you?
Sis, don't break the contract
San
Rudy, I want to leave
But you are here
I did all this for Elsa and my mom
But I cant do it anymore
It's like I didn't exist for the audience
I didn't exist for Elsa and my mom
My Love, My Sweet love
Can you feel my love for you?
Isnt this Sandras turn?
It is
Where is she? Call Rudy
Hold on, Boss
Should I want you
Elsa, I do this for you
Because I love you
Just be yourself my love
Love yourself just the way you are
For who you are
Because of you my love
I can love myself
Just the way I am
I will always love you
My love, my sweet love
Can you feel my love for you?
My love, my dear
I want you to know
Whats inside my heart
Should I want you?
Do you want me to
Chase your shadows?
Just be yourself my love
Love yourself just the way you are
For who you are
Because of you my love
I can love myself
Just the way I am
I will always love you
Love yourself just the way you are
For who you are
Because of you my love
I can love myself
Just the way I am
I will always love you
Hi
Hey, I thought you left
Not yet
You want to send me home with your bike?
I want to but it's midnight
Bayu might kill me
Elsa, I am heading out
Thank you
Mike, were you happy with our performance?
Very much. What about you?
Yes, but sorry for the start
I think my mic was broken
Its okay. Its a new song.
The audience might not even notice
Yeah but I feel
It's common to have technical issues on stage
Whats important is a good performance and happy audience
Dont think too much about it
Elsa Anindita
Michael Nara
Thank you for this
El, Ill head out
Lets go
Where is Rudy?
He is sending Bayu home
Youre hitching a ride from me?
Look at that, Mom
Rud, its impossible for him not to notice this
He didnt say anything
Look closely
Sis, relax. He would have said something to me...
...if he was suspicious, but he seemed fine
He would know if hes a good singer
I dont care as long as hes nice to me
I like him, hes cute
That has nothing to do with his skills as a singer
That has nothing to do with his skills as a singer
Sis, I was joking
Sis, I was joking
I dont like seeing you so stressed out like this
Stop it! Its not funny
My duet with Michael will boost my career
Remember? The one that you almost ruin?
Enough, the both of you
Enough, the both of you
Sandra, did you apologize to Elsa...
Sandra, did you apologize to Elsa...
...for what happened at the orphanage?
Apologize? Does she even know what it means?
Im tired, Mom.
Rud, I want to quit
Will you stop being so selfish?
Im selfish?
Have you ever thought of anyone other than yourself?
We made this decision together
Why youre like the only one suffering?
You dont think Im tired too?
Are you saying youre tired of...
...the love and praises from so many people?
Getting superstar treatments everywhere you go
You're suffering? Tell me about it
You want special treatments too?
You are jealous of me?
Why would I be jealous of you?
A singer who cant even sing
Youre a singer whos never gone on stage
Ghost singer
We're the most miserable family in the whole world
Rud, get me out of here
Excuse me, maam
Elsa, lets get ready, it's late
Mike, thank you for being here
Ill check on Bayu and have a smoke outside
What's wrong?
You were freaking out over the phone
I just had a fight with Sandra
Isnt that common? Sisters fight, right?
Mike
What if you're losing your fame?
Those times were long gone
Im fine as long as I could still sing
How would you feel about singing without an audience?
Id love to have an audience of course
But I cant force people to like my work
What is it?
I never really liked singing
My real passion is acting
Arent we acting when we are on stage?
I mean when were on stage
we have to look happy for the audience
Once up there, we cant rely on anyone or anything
I still rely on this
This is fake
Dont rely on it
Singing on stage is the only way I don't feel lonely
Once offstage, I dont really have anyone else
Unlike you, you have your mother and Sandra
I want to tell you something
Elsa, one more minute on standby
Mike, where are you going?
Is one minute enough?
But I really got to tell you this
You can tell me later, I have to go now
I dont want to bump into Bayu
Alright then, give me back my fake lucky charm
Many things in this world are fake, too many
Mike, you are not alone
You have me
Thank you for the home band
Good evening, gorgeous
Good evening
Let me get right to it
Youre about to release a new album
Your hit single was a huge success
How do you feel?
The album is in progress, I am happy and excited
I am happy for you too. Arent you all?
Let's give her a round of applause
Beautiful and talented
Thank you
You made sure this is just an interview?
Yes
Then why are you so anxious?
Rudy and Sandra are not answering their phones
How many times do I have to say this?
Don't get Sandra involved in this sort of things
But you know Elsa cant be away from her sister
She can be and she will be
She can be and she will be
Rumor has it that in your upcoming album...
Rumor has it that in your upcoming album...
you have one original song
The one that you wrote for the audition of the movie Superstar
Yes, thats right
Thats your original song, right?
Yes, thats right
That is amazing! Dont you guys love that song?
Yeah
I am sure not only me but the audience too...
would love to hear you sing live, right?
Why dont you sing a bit for us here in the studio?
Sing?
You really have a beautiful voice
Let us hear it live, right now
Just a bit
Lets give it to Elsa
Let me call you back
Nab, do something!
I dont know what to do
Elsa, just a bit
Sing! Sing!
Come on, Elsa
Elsa! Elsa!
Come on, Elsa
Please
Just a bit
Are you ready?
But I wasnt briefed
It's okay, just a bit for us
Okay, ready?
Everybody, ready?
Okay
Watch out!
Elsa! Elsa!
I am from Big Entertainment, I am the producer
Sorry but you cant interrupt the live show
Oh my goodness, cut!
Yes, Nab. Whats wrong with Elsa?
What happened?
Elsa passed out during the talk show
Elsa, what happened?
I am fine, Mom
Elsa, I am worried
I am fine! Nabila, you may leave
There was a bit of trouble, but its all good now
Elsas things are here
Thank you
Thanks Rud. Why dont you go home?
Elsa is inside
Thanks, Nab
Sandra, where were you?
Mom, let me deal with Elsa
San... Sandra
Elsa
Elsa
Open the door
What do you want?
Elsa, open the door please
I am fine
Just open the door
Hold on
Get away from me
Where are you going?
Going out
Wait! Where are you going? The driver has left
I know
Elsa, wait a minute
Elsa
Wait, Elsa!
What do you want?
Where do you want to go?
Let her be. Shell come back
She cant be away from her sister for too long
Where is she going, Mom?
Sandra
Forgive me
Your father left us with huge debts after his death
It should be my responsibility
But it has become yours to support the family
Dont say that, Mom
It is my responsibility as the eldest child
Sandra
I know you would do anything for Elsa
For you too
Honey, I know
Being Elsas ghost singer was never easy for you
Its unfair for you
Im sorry for not stopping you guys
Its not your fault, Mom
I thought I was strong enough to do this...
...for the only sister I love so much, but I am not
You are not Elsas shadow but you are her reflection
She looks up to you since she was a child
She adores you very much
You are the heart of the family
Without you, we could never move on
What should I do if you become an actress?
Your manager, what else?
No, a singer
That dream is long gone
Why? You dont just give up on your dreams
I still hear you sing all the time
You even write your own songs
But without an audience, just you and Mom
True but it's okay. We need to dream big
One thing for sure
You will still be my sister if I become famous
She wet the bed again
My goodness, you will sleep in the bathroom tonight
No, I dont want to sleep in the bathroom
No, I dont want to sleep in the bathroom
Then stop wetting the bed
Then stop wetting the bed
Your mom has changed the bedsheet twice
Stop scolding her, Dad
Its okay, Ill sleep in the bathroom with you
I dont mean to meddle in your familys business
But let me remind you, Elsa owes me three albums
Come on, San, at least finish the first one
We would like to terminate the contract, sir
No, you cant
You signed the contract, you gave the consent
Dont blame her for this
Its no ones fault, cut the drama
It is my fault, San
Let me tell you whats going to happen
I want Sandra to continue singing but as herself
and Elsa to continue with her acting career
It's not that simple
You think the public will easily forgive us for the lie?
I can assure you
Elsas career is doomed forever if it's made public
Dont even think of Sandra becoming a singer
Come on, there is no turning back now
Were in this together
San? See you in the recording studio
Well, look whos back
Good, still beautiful and marketable
Why dont you take a rest for the week?
I told the media that you fainted because of fatigue
The game is still on, ladies
Bayu is right, its no ones fault
Mike
What are you doing here?
Did you spend the night here?
Why dont you go home and sleep?
Is Elsa coming in for the recording?
No, shes still unwell, resting at home
Ucok went out for lunch, he will be back shortly
No worries, we just want to listen to Elsas final mix
What on earth was he doing here?
Do you think he heard us?
Elsa has a crush on him
Lets start the recording
Rud
Do you want to know what I want the most right now?
What is it?
Hi
Lets go
You faked your fainting?
Yeah
Okay
Arent you going to ask why?
To tell you the truth, it was never me
I have been using Sandras voice
I am serious
I knew all this
When I accidentally saw her singing
At the orphanage?
Orphanage? No, backstage
During your first performance
Well
I threatened Bayu to get a duet between us
Or I will tell the public that Elsa Anindita cant sing
You have no proof
I recorded a conversation...
...between Sandra and Rudy backstage
You did!
I know, I screwed up
I thought nothing else would matter as long as...
...I can continue with my singing career
But I was wrong
Nothing really matters if I have to lose you
Will you forgive me?
Elsa, dont go
Maybe you should be left alone
So you cant hurt someone who cares about you
Done, Ive deleted them all
Great, what's your plan?
I dont know, it's none of your business
Frankly I hated you so much for blackmailing me
But now I feel sorry for you
Youre willing to go that low to save your career
Why dont you take a look at yourself...
...and reflect on what youve done to save yourself?
Michael Nara quits Big Entertainment
Shocking news to the Indonesian music industry
Mike fell out with Big Entertainment producer Bayu
Elsa, what made Michael Nara leave?
I am not quite sure about that, sorry
What about your relationship with Michael Nara?
Are you guys still together?
I have no comment on that
How is the prep for your next concert Pretty El?
Its in progress, I kindly ask for your support
Thank you
Elsa, were leaving, bye
Thank you
Nab, do you have an older sister?
Yes, many
Younger sister?
Also, many
My dad married three times and my mom twice
I only have one sister
Shes been taken care of me all her life
She always puts me first
...including this to make my dream come true
Elsa
It was me, I filmed Sandra singing at the orphanage
I followed them
The YouTube post was fake
It was set to private so no one could see it
This was all Bayus idea to scare you and Sandra
I hope you can forgive me, Elsa
I can go home by myself
Are you mad?
Yes, I am pissed
But not at you, Mom, Sandra or even Bayu
Alright then, Ill leave you alone
Nabila
Mike, Im busy
I have a favor to ask
What do you want?
It's urgent
Elsa, I just ran into Mike
He asked me to pass you this
Please check his messages from this afternoon
Ill do it later
Its urgent, Mike said
Hi El, I wish both you and Sandra...
...the best of luck for tonights show
I would like to share something with you
This is more important than my confession
I overheard Sandra and Rudy talking in the studio
Do you want to know what I want the most right now?
What is it?
I wish God could take my voice and give it to Elsa
I think its important for you to know about this
- San, all good? -Yeah
Wow
Finally
Do you like it?
Yes, you look beautiful
Rud, a moment please, it's urgent
Cant you use the walkie?
Hurry! Come out here please
Sorry, Ill be back
What is it?
San
There's a slight change for the opening
Elsa will give an opening speech for the fans
Got it
But the first song will still be the same, right?
That's right
Ill give you a cue
Okay
Ladies and gentlemen, please welcome Elsa Anindita!
Good evening, everyone
I would like to thank you all for coming here tonight
Before we begin
I would like to share with you a little bit about myself
Do you remember the song Melangkah (Moving Forward)?
Yes
I first sang that song for a movie audition
Thats the first time you saw me
The song was written by my sister
Sandra
Rud, whats happening?
She wrote Melangkah
She not only wrote the song
But she has been the one singing it
This must be part of the show
She sings all my songs
All my songs
What you have been listening to is not my voice
It is her voice
Rud, this is not funny
Follow me
Where are we going?
Where are we going?
Just follow me, Ill explain later
Just follow me, Ill explain later
What about Elsa?
Forgive me
Forgive me for lying to all of you
If thats the case, we better cancel all our deals
If thats the case, we better cancel all our deals
Dont do this, I can explain
Dont do this, I can explain
Wait, this is part of the show
I thought this was the only way to achieve my dream
Now I realized this means nothing if I reach my dreams
But I have to lose my sister whom I love very much
Sandra
Tonight
I want all of you to hear and see the truth
If I ever made a mistake
And hurt you
If you ever think
I could go on without you
Forgive me
For my mistake
Forgive me
For my vanity
Sandra Anandara
Come on, Sis
Lets prove it to them
Lets sing with me for the first and maybe the last time
I dont want to
Move forward without you by my side
My heart would stop
Without you
And I cant go on
Cant move without your love
Im longing for your love
Hear my plea
Please help me
Strengthened me
Never leave me
I want the world to know
All that I am is because of you
I dont want to
Move forward without you by my side
Feels like my heart would stop beating
Without you
And I cant go on
Cant move on without your love
Im longing for your love
Hear my plea
My prayer
That you always by my side
And I wont be afraid of anything
I dont want to
Move forward without you by my side
My children
Feels like my heart would stop beating
Without you
And I cant go on
Cant move on without your love
Im longing for your love
I promise
To be the one that you want to
To be the one that you hope for
This is my prayer
