They answered questions about the technical aspects of production, challenges faced during the filmmaking process, and their hopes for their works in the <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Global Short Competition<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> at Jakarta Film Week 2024.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">BW Purbanegara shared that <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Shallot Salad<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> was inspired by his grief and concern over the tragic Kanjuruhan incident in 2022. With a creative process that took only five days, and limited resources provided by friends, he poured his heart into preparing the film.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cOne of the challenges was the post-production process, which took a year and a half,\u201d added BW Purbanegara. Driven by similar concerns, Inoka Palliyaguru, the director of <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Stranglement<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, expressed that in her homeland, Sri Lanka, suicide tragedies are disturbingly common. This reality motivated her to create a film that raises awareness of the hardships in Sri Lanka, which often drive people to such despair.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Interestingly, both films stemmed from deep-seated concerns of their creators. Both BW Purbanegara and Inoka believe film is a powerful medium to convey personal messages in a broader, more accessible way.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Through <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Shallot Salad<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, BW Purbanegara seeks to highlight the critical issues still unresolved in Indonesia and hopes that solutions can be found in alignment with human rights principles. Inoka, meanwhile, hopes that the selection of <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Stranglement<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> for the Global Short Competition at Jakarta Film Week 2024 will inspire her nation and peers to nurture Sri Lanka\u2019s film industry.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cThere\u2019s no market in my country to distribute this film,\u201d said Inoka.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">BW Purbanegara concluded with the wish that Jakarta Film Week could be extended, with more programs and a wider variety of films.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cThat would be amazing, even if it\u2019s more exhausting. Kudos to the Jakarta Film Week 2024 team for their hard work in making this festival a reality,\u201d BW Purbanegara said in closing.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">For more information on Jakarta Film Week 2024 programs and events, visit<\/span><a href=\"http:\/\/www.jakartafilmweek.com\"> <span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">www.jakartafilmweek.com<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> and follow us on social media @jakartafilmweek.
