Gw sbnrnya uda ngebahas ini tp gw masih pengen ngoceh2… Wkt bbrp minggu yg lalu tuh gw nonton film Bystanders as known as Diary of June. Awalnya gw nonton itu tuh karena Eric dari Shinhwa ada maen di film itu. Tp begitu gw nonton, lama2 gw ngerasa Ericnya makin ga penting en mending dia ke laut aja. Gw nonton tuh film ampe bener2 emosi. Sampe gw nangis saking marahnya. Mnrt gw tuh film tuh bener2 nyesekin bgt en nusuk bgt. Mnrt gw smua anak SMA di Indo tuh mesti nonton tuh film. Mnrt gw tuh film tu pny makna yg bener2 dalem en nyindir abis.

Intinya tu film tuh ttg seorang anak SMA yang bunuh diri karena dia ‘was bullied’ sama tmn2 sekelasnya. Nah, dalam mayat dia itu ditemukan serpihan2 ato tepatnya robekan2 kecil dr buku diary dia. Isinya adalah ttg pembunuhan yg ingin dia lakukan thd tmn2 skelasnya yg uda ngegencet dia slama ini. Nah tepat spt isi robekan2 tsb, tmn2nya tuh mulai mati dibunuin seseorang. Plotnya bagus, okeh tp ga wow bgt. Yg bener2 nusuk gw adalah waktu gw liat apa yg dilakuin tmn2nya thd Jin-mo, anak cowo yg bunuh diri ini. Itu tuh keterlaluan bgt en bener2 bikin gw emosi naik darah ampe mo matain tu dvd. Sayang gw nontonnya ma tmn2 gw yg lg rame bgt, kalo ga gw bs marah2 sndiri kali. Itu tuh parah bgt. En tu film tu ngajarin gw sesuatu hal. Tkadang dalam hal2 buruk spt itu, yg paling parah bknlah pelaku2 penggencetan itu, tp org2 yang cuma nonton dr belakang. Mereka itu yg dsbut bystanders. Mereka emang ga ikut ngegencet ato nyiksa Jin-mo, tp mereka jg ga bantu. Mereka cm nonton. Dan itu yg parah.

Di kehidupan, kita tuh sering bgt yg namanya nyaksiin ketidakadilan. Tp apa kita brani buat nentang en ngebela yg bener? Film itu membuat gw bertanya2 sbnrnya apa yg uda gw lakuin buat sesama gw slama ini. Mgkn gw emang ga pernah ngerugiin org scr sengaja ato ngejahatin org, tp apa gw membantu org yg dijahatin? Apa gw membantu tmn gw yg kesusahan? Apa gw itu seorang bystander yg sbnrnya lbh jahat drpd si pelaku itu sendiri?

Berikut adalah blog dr tmn gw yg gw quote mengenai review film yg sama…

Another thing I’ve learned about the movie is the fault of the bystander. One may think that a bystander is innocent, but in reality, he is as guilty as the one doing the deed. A bystander could have done something, but why did he choose not to? Fear? Indifference? I think if the bystander has the ability to do something, then he has no excuse not to. Act before you regret.

En ini summary dr pndapat gw en dia:

If you think about the story on a bigger picture, it applies not only to the bully issue at school but to the world as well. The way that people often ‘walk away’ when they see other people getting hurt or harmed is something that should not be tolerated. But yet, out of our own interest, we tend to neglect them and simply walk-off.

I just hate how the other kids who feel they are almighty bully their
friends. I mean, how could they? They don’t even have the right to
touch their friend’s shoes yet they push their friends into a stage of
depression until they kill themselves.
