First Look of “Dampak” & Press
Conference:
The movie revolves around the story of five siblings who seek revenge
against the enemy of their stepfather. Aaron
Aziz, Farid Kamil, Intan Ladyana, Juliana Evans and Michael Chin played as siblings in the movie.
Action-packed
movie!
The movie itself has quite a number of action scenes. According to the
actors and actresses, the stunts in the movie were all done by them their own.
So it’s a very appreciable effort by the casts!
It’s
like a graphical novel, not a gangster movie!
Despite of involving major gangsterism theme in it, the director, Lai has mentioned that the movie is
actually more like a graphical novel instead of a gangster movie. It’s
something like a fantasy movie.
Intan
Ladyana takes on the tough challenges!
In this film, Intan Ladyana has to face a few challenges. One of it is
that she’s required to portray a character who smokes inside the movie. It was
kind of tough for her because in real life she does not like smoking at all.
Apart from that, the biggest challenge is the rape scene with Farid Kamil. The
scene itself requires some acting skills as she needs to portray as someone who
is the victim of raping but at the same time having some urge to have intimate
relationship with the guy. This is a very daring attempt taken by Intan Ladyana and she’s ready to accept
any upcoming critics because she sees it as just an act and the scene is really
required to make the story progresses.
21 days
of filming in Klang Valley and also Pulau Ketam!
The film background setting involves a few places in Klang Valley and
also Pulau Ketam because all the main characters originate from Pulau Ketam.
