Sometimes, the larger the funding, the greater the challenges,” noted Didier.<\/span><\/p>\n

\n

The <\/span>ASEAN Regional Workshop on Creative Economy<\/span><\/i>, in collaboration with the JFW Net Industry Program, was also a key highlight.

\n

Collaborative Programs with Directorate of Film, Music, and Media (PMM) of the Ministry of Education, Culture, Research, and Technology Indonesia<\/b><\/p>\n

Jakarta Film Week also collaborated with the Directorate of Film, Music, and Media (PMM) of the Ministry of Education, Culture, Research, and Technology by presenting the <\/span>Screening of Indonesiana Children’s Animation<\/span><\/i>, featuring titles such as <\/span>Banti Rengo<\/span><\/i>, <\/span>Kwartet Gupala sang Jagawana<\/span><\/i>, and <\/span>Kesatria Semesta<\/span><\/i>. Additionally, <\/span>Indonesiana Women’s Story<\/span><\/i> showcased films with women-centered themes, followed by a Q&A session with filmmakers such as Rifqi Mardhani (<\/span>Perempuan Berlumur Lumpur<\/span><\/i>), Rohil Fidiawan Mokmin (<\/span>Perempuan Dalam Anyaman<\/span><\/i>), Jamaluddin Phonna (<\/span>Selubung Kain Putih<\/span><\/i>), Indra Prasetya (<\/span>Pembayun<\/span><\/i>), and Erina Adeline (<\/span>Gin Swa<\/span><\/i>).<\/span><\/p>\n

\n

Many compelling stories emerged during the Q&A session with the filmmakers of <\/span>Layar Cerita Perempuan Indonesiana<\/span><\/i>, but one of the most personal came from the film <\/span>Gin Swa<\/span><\/i>. Director Erina Adeline revealed that she created the film based on a real-life experience losing her father suddenly at the beginning of 2024.<\/span><\/p>\n

\n

She once dreamed of buying a car for her father when she was financially stable. However, he passed away before she could realize that dream. This became the foundation of <\/span>Gin Swa<\/span><\/i>. “Gin Swa” means silver paper, and the tradition of burning gin swa represents a way for Chinese descendants to honor their ancestors. “In the film, since the daughter was unable to fulfill her goal of gifting her father a car, she tries to achieve this goal through gin swa, a cultural tradition held by the Chinese community,” explained director Erina Adeline.<\/span><\/p>\n

\n
