Actress Zaskia Adya Mecca is excited to talk about her new film project, entitled Hijab, that tells about the lifestyle of women who wear a hijab (head scarf), in Jakarta.

'€œThe movie captures [the lifestyle of] a new urban society [in Jakarta]. Hijab has reached middle-class people nowadays,'€ Zaskia was quoted by kapanlagi.com.

Zaskia is working together with her husband, director Hanung Bramantyo, in producing the film, which is set to hit theaters next year.

The flick also tells about women who are more successful in the economy than their spouses.

'€œThere are times when mothers are busy working, while fathers don'€™t have jobs. [The film] shows some ways to deal with such a situation.'€
