Viking Sunset Studios Bali Unveils Heartfelt Bali Love Story, Semusim, at the Cannes Film Festival 2025

WILMINGTON, NC, UNITED STATES, May 12, 2025 /EINPresswire.com/ -- Viking Sunset Studios Bali Unveils Heartfelt Bali Love Story, Semusim, at the Cannes Film Festival 2025
Cannes, France – Viking Sunset Studios is thrilled to introduce its latest film, Semusim, a captivating love story set against the breathtaking beauty of Bali. Inspired by the evocative song of the same name by Marcell, this film weaves a tale of romance, personal growth, and the power of kindness.

The film follows the journey of a wealthy young man, whose life takes an unexpected turn after a fateful accident with a mysterious and beautiful woman. As their lives intertwine, she reluctantly grants him a single season—Semusim in Indonesian — to win her heart, all while teaching him the values of humility and selflessness. Through their evolving relationship, audiences will experience an emotional journey that culminates in an inspiring conclusion, reminding us of the importance of leading by example and spreading goodness in the world.
Directed and produced by Bo H. Holmgreen, Semusim is a testament to the dedication and passion of a remarkable cast and crew. Reflecting on the production, Holmgreen shared, “I enjoyed this shoot immensely. We had exciting and creative days, but always fun and happy teamwork. Since I don’t speak the local language, I had to rely on my Indonesian co-directors and line producer to instruct the crew and actors to get what I wanted, but that was easy since we had the best team and some stellar Indonesian actors like Rizky Hangono, Dennis Adishwara, and Chico Jericho. Chico Jericho, Rizky Hangono and Dennis Adishwara were amazing, and the loving couple played by Pangeran Lantang and Kania Atmaja created a beautiful romance on film that I am sure will be appreciated all over the world.”

Viking Sunset Studios will attend the Cannes Film Festival 2025 as part of their annual rounds at major film festivals, including Berlin, Venice, Cannes, and others. The feedback we receive time and again is consistent—everyone is captivated by the beauty of Bali and dreams of shooting in its stunning locations. From volcanoes and black sand beaches to lush jungles, rice terraces, raging rivers, and breathtaking ocean sunsets, the natural wonders surrounding Viking Sunset Studios create the perfect cinematic paradise. Notably, Viking Sunset Studios is home to the largest enclosed green screen soundstage in Indonesia, uniquely situated amidst this awe-inspiring natural beauty.

Getting ready for release, Semusim is set to captivate audiences worldwide. Holmgreen, a frequent attendee of the major film festivals, expressed confidence in the film’s potential: “I see high-quality films at these festivals, and I think this love story will be up there with the best.” Viking Sunset Studios aims to premiere Semusim at prestigious international film festivals, ensuring that its powerful message reaches a global audience. Mr. Holmgreen continued: “This love story with its twists and turns is unique and a great story – we can’t wait to share it with audiences and show off Bali and our Viking Sunset Studios on the beach – everyone will want to come join the stunning sunsets over the ocean!”

Captivated by the stunning visuals captured with the ARRI Mini LF, Semusim brings an unparalleled cinematic experience, showcasing the beauty of Bali with extraordinary depth and clarity.
