Selamat datang di Jakarta International Film Welcome to the 12th Jakarta International Film
Foreword

Festival ke-12! Festival!

Dalam banyak hal, festival tahun ini bisa jadi yang paling In many ways, the festival this year will go down in history as
berkesan sampai sejauh ini.
the most heartfelt yet.

6 Ancaman serius terhadap kelangsungan festival karena

kurangnya dana yang ada membuat kami meluncurkan
The serious threat of being cancelled due to the lack of

program publik donasi. Respon antusias dari publik
membuat kami percaya bahwa festival ini harus ada.
Kami ucapkan terima kasih yang mendalam kepada
semua pihak yang telah mendukung pelaksanaan JIFFest
tahun ini.
Dengan semangat “And JIFFest for all!”, kami kembali ke
Jakarta Selatan setelah beberapa tahun absen. Sebagian
besar pemutaran digelar di Blitzmegaplex Pacific Place
sebagai official screening venue, dan kegiatan pendukung
seperti workshop dan seminar diselenggarakan di
Binus International University. Selain kedua tempat
ini, beberapa pemutaran lain akan diselenggarakan di
Kineforum.
Untuk kali pertama, JIFFest akan dibuka dengan film
dokumenter Waiting for “Superman”. Tema film ini yang
mengangkat perjuangan dan harapan anak-anak di
Amerika Serikat untuk mendapatkan pendidikan yang
lebih baik sesuai dengan spirit JIFFest tahun ini. Meskipun
selalu dihadang hambatan, kami percaya bahwa
festival ini harus terus diadakan untuk membuat kota
Jakarta menjadi kota yang nyaman dan penuh dengan
keragaman budaya.
funding support prompted us to launch a public donation
drive, the first time JIFFest ever did such. We could not be
more thankful enough for the mass support that make the
festival this year happen.
As you can see in the Friends of JIFFest list in this program
guide, this year the festival is aimed at reaching out for wider
audiences. With the spirit “And JIFFest for all!”, we venture into
the new territory of Southern Jakarta area after a few years of
absence. Most of the screenings will be held in Blitzmegaplex
Pacific Place, while fringe events of workshops, seminar and
discussion will be held in Binus International University. In
the meantime, select screenings will also be held in art-house
cinema Kineforum.
For the first time, JIFFest will open with a documentary film,
Waiting for “Superman”. As the film unfolds struggle and
hope of American children of getting better education, the
similar theme can be said about the present state of the
festival itself. Despite the constant struggle, we believe that
the festival is worth being held to enrich the cultural diversity
in the town, which has made the city worth living in.

Tahun ini kami memilih film penutup Biutiful, karya
sutradara Alejandro Gonzalez Inarritu. Film-film karya
Inarritu selalu mendapat tempat di hati penonton JIFFest
karena festival ini selalu memutar karya beliau.
Di antara kedua film ini akan hadir film-film internasional
terpilih. Dari Kenya sampai Irak, dari Australia sampai
Taiwan. Film-film ini hanya akan diputar pada pelaksanaan
festival saja, sehingga rugi jika anda lewatkan.
Mari kita buat festival tahun ini menjadi festival yang
paling berkesan!
The festival will end with Biutiful, the latest film by director
Alejandro Gonzalez Inarritu, whose past films have always
been shown in the previous editions of the festival.
Along the way, we still bring the fine selection of international
cinema, from Kenya to Iraq, from a farm in Australia to a
suburban area in Taipei. As all of the films screened are only
shown during the festival period, take some time out to
embrace these wonderful films.
Let’s make the festival this year a very memorable one and
have a good festival!

 Friends of JiFFest
Friends of JIFFest

On October 14, 2010, JIFFest held a press conference in Galeri Cipta 3, Taman Ismail Marzuki (TIM), Jakarta.
The press conference was held to declare that the festival is at the danger of being cancelled indefinitely due to the
lack of substantial funding.
Around 100 people from media and film industry showed up to support JIFFest. In addition, Facebook and Twitter
users had showed their support by adding the hash-tag of #SaveJIFFest prior to the press conference, and this
continued for days and weeks afterwards.
Everybody was shocked to learn that JIFFest, the first and foremost international film festivals in Indonesia, was on
the edge of being gone for good. The festival not only launched careers of several prominent Indonesian filmmakers,
but also has opened up and expanded knowledge of local filmgoers on the world of film beyond mainstream
offering in local cinema.
Everybody shared their good memories on JIFFest for the past 11 years. Some are good, some filled with laughter,
but all the recollection gave assurance that JIFFest has become one of a very few precious elements that makes
Jakarta worth living.
A public donation drive was launched following the press conference. Everyone can make their donations to :
Yayasan Masyarakat Mandiri Film Indonesia
account no. 7420030091
BCA Percetakan Negara
Yayasan Masyarakat Mandiri Film Indonesia
account no. 122-000-565035-6
Bank Mandiri Teuku Cik Ditiro
The donation helps to ensure that the festival will be running in years to come. This is the reason why we want to
continue the donation without any time limits.
On the following page, you can see the names of donors who have made their contribution as of November 10, 2010.
We humbly thank you all for making JIFFest this year, and many years to come, happen.
You are indeed FRIENDS OF JIFFEST.

Sahabat JiFFest

Pada tanggal 14 Oktober 2010, JIFFest mengadakan konferensi pers di Galeri Cipta 3, Taman Ismail Marzuki (TIM),
Jakarta.
Konferensi pers ini diadakan untuk mengumumkan bahwa festival film ini terancam batal diselenggarakan karena
kurangnya dana yang dibutuhkan.
Sekitar 100 orang dari media dan para pelaku industri film hadir untuk memberikan dukungan mereka untuk JIFFest.
Bahkan sebelum konferensi pers ini digelar, para pengguna Facebook dan Twitter telah menunjukkan dukungan
mereka dengan menggunakan tanda pagar #SaveJIFFest, dan hal ini terus berlanjut sampai hari-hari berikutnya.
Semua orang terkejut mendengar bahwa JIFFest, festival film internasional pertama di Indonesia, terancam batal
untuk selamanya. Festival ini tidak hanya membantu meluncurkan karir bagi beberapa pembuat film ternama
Indonesia, tapi juga telah membuka pengetahuan para pecinta film Indonesia tentang film-film bermutu di luar apa
yang ditayangkan oleh bioskop lokal.
Teman-teman sempat berbagi kenangan tentang JIFFest selama 11 tahun terakhir. Kenangan manis yang penuh
dengan tawa dan air mata, semuanya meyakinkan kami bahwa JIFFest telah menjadi salah satu elemen penting yang
membuat kota Jakarta ini nyaman untuk ditinggali.
Sebuah gerakan pengumpulan donasi diluncurkan bersama dengan konferensi pers tersebut. Semua orang dapat
mengirimkan donasi ke:
Yayasan Masyarakat Mandiri Film Indonesia
No. Rek. 7420030091
BCA cabang Percetakan Negara
Yayasan Masyarakat Mandiri Film Indonesia
No. Rek. 122-000-565035-6
Bank Mandiri cabang Teuku Cik Ditiro
Donasi tersebut meyakinkan kami bahwa festival ini dapat terus berjalan di masa depan. Hal inilah yang membuat
kami akan terus membuka kesempatan bagi yang ingin mendukung tanpa ada batasan waktu.
Di halaman berikut, teman-teman dapat melihat nama-nama para donatur kami yang telah memberikan
kontribusinya sampai tanggal 10 November 2010.
Dari lubuk hati yang paling dalam, kami ucapkan terima kasih untuk semua yang telah memungkinkan JIFFest
terselenggara tahun ini dan di tahun-tahun berikutnya.
Kami bangga memiliki SAHABAT JIFFEST seperti kalian.

Waiting for “Superman”

Dir.: Davis Guggenheim
USA. 2010. 111 min. Documentary/Education. Color. 35 mm. English.

NOV 25 / BLZ 1 / 19:00 (by invitation only) • NOV 25 / BLZ 1 / 21:30 (by invitation only) •

For a nation that proudly declared it would leave no child behind, America continues to do so at alarming rates. Despite
increased spending and politicians’ promises, America’s public-education system, once the best in the world, is now falling
and failing the nation’s children.
Filmmaker Davis Guggenheim reminds us that education has names: Anthony, Francisco, Bianca, Daisy, and Emily, five
children who deserve better education and whose stories make up the engrossing foundation of the film. As he follows a
handful of promising kids through a system that inhibits, rather than encourages, academic growth, Guggenheim undertakes
an exhaustive review of public education, surveying “drop-out factories” and “academic sinkholes,” methodically dissecting
the system and its seemingly intractable problems.

Untuk sebuah negara yang berikrar tidak akan membiarkan anak-anak terlantar, sistem pendidikan di Amerika Serikat, yang
pernah menjadi yang terbaik di dunia, sekarang malah di ambang kehancuran dan menghancurkan masa depan anak-anak.
Sutradara Davis Guggenheim mengingatkan kita bahwa pendidikan mempunyai nama pada Anthony, Francisco, Bianca, Daisy
dan Emily, lima anak yang layak mendapatkan pendidikan lebih baik. Cerita kelima anak ini membuka mata sutradara dan kita
semua tentang berbagai masalah yang ada di sistem pendidikan Amerika Serikat sekarang ini.

Davis Guggenheim is widely known as an award-winning documentary filmmaker. The groundbreaking AN INCONVENIENT
TRUTH (screened in JIFFest 2006) won Best Documentary Feature in Academy Awards, and IT MIGHT GET LOUD (2008) was
declared as “insightful and musically satisfying” by influential website RottenTomatoes.com. The two documentaries, along
with WAITING FOR “SUPERMAN”, are ranked within the top 100 highest-grossing documentaries of all time.

Note: Audience Award for Documentary, Sundance Film Festival, 2010.

The film is jointly presented by JIFFest and Putra Sampoerna Foundation.

A story of the families in Flores who lost their family members who were working in Malaysia. Being a migrant worker is
common in Flores, as common as their suffering because of violence, death, even forces to change their names, all done in
the name of money. Noel, Santi and Epen are three children whose parents are still working in Malaysia. When Easter comes,
they are waiting for their parents to come home, because Easter is the time for the Larantukas who work abroad to come
home and be together again, in such a rare time, with their families.

Kisah tentang keluarga-keluarga yang kehilangan saudara, suami, istri, anak yang merantau di Malaysia. Menjadi buruh migran

Sebuah film yang tidak biasa. Sinopsis yang kami tawarkan

istrinya yang depresi ke rumah sakit jiwa. Tak lama kemudian,
istri Lucio sudah kembali pulang, dan terlihat sudah sembuh.

In February 2009, Janus Metz Pedersen followed the lives
of Danish soldiers in Afghanistan. He captured everything
as a journey into the inner realm of war, as a mixture of
boredom in the camp, and as the real fighting is close by.
The business of killing during assignments make the soldiers
exposed directly to the feeling of extended fear and also to
the lust for “action”, the rush of blood, of wanting to kill. This
psychologically explosive conflict situation fundamentally
alters the mental balance of the soldiers.
Bulan Februari 2009, Janus Metz Pedersen merekam kehidupan
sehari-hari tentara Denmark di Afghanistan. Ia menangkap
semua emosi yang terpancar, mulai dari rasa bosan mereka
saat menunggu “briefing” dan “debriefing”, saat-saat
tegang penuh aksi dimana mereka terlibat baku tembak
dan merasakan takut sekaligus senang. Konflik psikologis
yang dialami para prajurit tersebut cukup mengganggu
keseimbangan mental mereka.
Janus Metz Pedersen has a degree in communication studies
and international development. The film ARMADILLO
provoked furious debate in Denmark concerning the
controversial behavior of certain Danish soldiers during a
shootout with Taliban fighters.

the olive trees that are crucial to the town’s survival. But
husband and father Ayed—whose acts as an activist have
landed him in prison before—is determined to act, together
with his 15 year-old daughter and the rest of the town.
Di perbatasan Israel dan Palestina, pemerintah Israel
membangun dinding pemisah yang menerobos masuk

It doesn’t have to be the same, the call for prayers is always
something meaningful and beautiful to many religions.
In this ‘city of angels’, where nowadays religion is only
something artificial for most people, the callers (from three
different religions) become something important. They not
only try to keep their existences, but also struggle to define
their own faith in life.
Panggilan untuk beribadah bagi banyak agama adalah
sesuatu yang agung dan indah. Di kota Los Angeles, di mana
agama terkadang menjadi sesuatu yang artificial bagi
kebanyakan orang di sini, pemanggil ibadah menjadi profesi
penting. Mereka tidak hanya mempertahankan eksistensi
profesi, namun harus berjuang untuk menemukan jati diri
keyakinan mereka.

“I wish we had more regional feature films, Screening Format: Digital
and more support for regional filmmakers.”
– Alexis Tioseco Total Screening Time: 78 min.

The Philippines, while mistakenly attributed mostly to what’s happening in the capital city, is a country composed of several islands and
regions, with several dialects and cultural traditions. With the advent of digital filmmaking, many filmmakers from these regions that were
long marginalized in the film community during the days of celluloid, are proving their creative mettle, coming up with several works that
match if not outdo their Manila counterparts. It was Alexis’ wish that support be given to these filmmakers, many of whom came up with
their feature films or are currently preparing for their feature films, and it is our fervent tribute to Alexis to curate a program of short films
that represent what the Philippines, as a country that is diverse and multi-faceted, truly is.

This year, the S-Express programme from Thailand consists of six shorts by young and talented filmmakers. The program includes Four Boys,
White Whiskey and Grilled Mouse, which was very recently awarded the Best Short Film award from the Tampere Film Festival in Finland.
The powerful Prisoner was named Best Short Film By A University Student at the 13th Thai Short Film & Video Festival last year. Sink [Vi]
was also a winner at the same festival, garnering the Best Animation award. Censored is the amazing first short from Kong Pahurak—he
is currently studying film at the prestigious Waseda University in Japan. (His latest film, Ladybird’s Tears, recently premiered at the 23rd
Singapore International Film Festival.) Nirvana forces us to question the prohibiting of disabled persons from Buddhist ordination. Last but
not least, in dedication to the recent political turmoil in Bangkok, I choose Karaoke: Think Kindly, which uses humor to portray the idea of
conciliation.
I personally think that Thai people must thoughtfully consider whether conciliation can solve the true conflict and, if so, how this
conciliation should be carried out.

Date : Saturday, December 4, 2010
Time : 17.00 – 18.00

Amongst the euphoria of reformasi and the rebirth of the Indonesian film
industry over the past decade, the past is often forgotten. This seminar seeks
to understand how the past continues to manifest in and structure the present.
As a case study, I look at the Chinese and Indian producers who, by virtue of
their race, are regarded as being commercially orientated and good at making
money. I challenge these racist assumptions and argue that their structural
position in the film industry aided their rise and dominance, and that this
continues as an informal oligopoly in the contemporary film industry.
Speakers: Thomas Baker (PhD Candidate, Department of Sociology, National
University of Singapore)
Moderator: Ekky Imanjaya
