Program Description
Road to Jakarta Film Week is a pre-festival event that screens four thematic films selected by curators representing their respective fields of expertise. The curators of Road to Jakarta Film Week 2021 are Nia Dinata (director), Asmara Abigail (actor), and Amir Siregar (critic). The selected films will depict Jakarta in cinema originating from three time periods, namely 1950-1969, 1970-1989, 1990-2010. In addition to the depiction of the capital city, the curators also considered the aesthetic approach and the socio-political conditions of the periods and their impact on the development of film in Indonesia.
