Recent short films from
the Indonesian New Wave



"Something invigorating and full-bodied is brewing in Indonesia, and it’s not a cup of mocha java. It’s a cinematic resurgence, the biggest since the early 2000s, when Rudy Soedjarwo’s 2002 teen romance "Apa ada dengan cinta?" (What’s With Love?) rocked the Southeast Asia market while in the same year Riri Riza’s “Eliana Eliana” stunned the festival circuit with femme-centric social realism." ( Variety News, May 2017)

NL Cavia presenteert een verzameling korte films van opkomende Indonesische filmmakers, die een breed scala aan onafhankelijke stemmen uit Midden-Java en omgeving onthullen. Deze nieuwe golf van filmmakers is divers in vertelstijl en onderwerp en flirt met neorealisme, en belicht door middel van observatie van het dagelijks leven de huidige debatten in het land over religie, politiek en geslacht. Alle films zijn Engels ondertiteld.
