Held at the Lecture Theater at UMN's Building D, it seeks to provide students and young professionals with insights on design and the film industry directly from the practitioners themselves.

Adapted from Bastian Tito's book series about the fictional character Wiro Sableng, a renowned martial arts hero in Indonesia, the film is the first cooperation between the Hollywood studio and Indonesia, and the first such cooperation in Southeast Asia, for that matter.
Written by Tumpal Tampubolon, Sheila Timothy and Seno Gumira Ajidarma, one of the most anticipated Indonesian films of the year will also feature stars such as Vino G. Bastian, Sherina Munaf, Yayan Ruhian and Fariz Alfarizi. (kes)
