Kehidupan seorang pekerja seni bukanlah suatu pekerjaan yang mudah di wilayah Jawa, Indonesia, terlebih seorang perempuan. Saya sendiri berasal dari keluarga seniman. Melalui film ini, saya ingin menggambarkan keseharian seorang seniwati yang harus berjuang sekuat tenaga untuk mencari sesuap nasi sekaligus mampu melestarikan budaya Jawa. Widowati adalah seorang sosok perempuan tangguh yang patut menjadi inspirasi bagi perempuan di era kini.

The life of an art worker is not an easy job in Java, Indonesia, especially a woman. I myself come from a family of artists.

Widowati is a formidable woman who deserves to be an inspiration for women in this era.
