The 12 Stories of Glen Anggara

Fajar Bustomi is one of the Indonesian directors that I like because of Winter in Tokyo and the Dilan movie series. Unfortunately, this film was not as good as those films. This film is based on the novel of the same name. The story of this film is about a girl who suffers from severe kidney failure, and she is dying. Before she dies, she wants to at least experience have a relationship with a boy. She chooses a boy named Glen as her boyfriend who will fulfill her 12 wishes before she dies. At first Glen reject it, but he finally accepts it because he felt sorry for her, and he wants to do something good in his life. Actually, I didn't have any expectations when watching this film. From the beginning to the middle of the film, this film is quite okay and acceptable. But from the middle to the end, there are too many scenes that are unnatural and seem a bit artificial, so it's quite difficult to relate and get carried away when watching this film. There are films with similar themes that are much better quality, such as Five Feet Apart, A Walk to Remember, The Fault in Our Stars, A Moment to Remember, A Millionaire's First Love, etc.
