Jokowi's Film Is We Show Simultaneously Throughout Indonesia In History Today, November 20, 2014

JAKARTA History today, 11 years ago, November 20, 2014, Jokowi's film is Kitata which is simultaneously in cinemas throughout Indonesia. The film by director Rony Mepet tries to provide understanding to the Indonesian people regarding Jokowi's struggle to become Governor of DKI Jakarta to become President of Indonesia.

Previously, Jokowi's existence in the world of brilliant politics. He has never lost in political contestation. This success is because Jokowi is often seen as a populist figure. The narrative is then seen as having great value.

Jokowi's footsteps in a brilliant political world. He was able to serve as Mayor of Surakarta from the 2005-2015 era. His leadership as Mayor was seen as successful. Jokowi is considered a simple public official figure.

Jokowi is able to show his capacity as a leader who stands above all groups. Jokowi also often goes directly to find out the problems faced by his citizens. The move is familiarly called blusukan.

Jokowi's popularity also rose. This condition is like a bigger Jokowi political leap. He then participated in the 2012 DKI Jakarta gubernatorial election. Jokowi was paired with Basuki Tjahaja Purnama (Ahok). The second duet was able to win the hearts of Jakarta residents.

The results are brilliant. Jokowi-Ahok became the new Governor and Deputy Governor of DKI Jakarta. Jokowi's actions as the leader of Jakarta were no less successful. Jokowi is like going in and out of the village to shop for problems related to Jakarta residents.

This condition makes the camera spotlight constantly directed at Jokowi. The blusukan style and simplicity are in fact anesthetizing the whole of Indonesia. Jokowi is also starting to be predicted to be the future leader of Indonesia.

Long story short, the Indonesian Democratic Party of Struggle (PDIP) brought Jokowi as a presidential candidate in the 2014 presidential election. Jokowi was paired with Jusuf Kalla (JK). The second duet is considered the right combination. Support for Jokowi also arrived, from musicians to filmmakers.

As a result, Jokowi-JK was able to become the President and Vice President of Indonesia to be elected. Both were sworn in on October 20, 2014.

"Just me, Jokowi and JK, took the oath. The oath has a very deep spiritual meaning, which confirms our commitment to work hard to achieve our common will as a great nation."

"This is the time for us to unite our hearts and hands, this is the time for us to jointly continue the next tough historical test, namely achieving and realizing a sovereign Indonesia in the political field, independent in the economic field, and having a personality in culture. I believe that we will be able to carry this very heavy historical task together with unity, with mutual cooperation, and with hard work," said Jokowi at his inauguration as quoted on the Cabinet Secretariat website, October 20, 2014.

The victory was greeted with joy. Film filmmaker Rony Mepet too. He has a different way of celebrating Jokowi's victory. He tried to speed up the work of Jokowi's travel films from the Governor of DKI Jakarta to the President of Indonesia.

The film is titled Jokowi is Kita. Those who fill the role are famous actors. Take the example of Ben Joshua as Jokowi. Agustine Taidi as Ahok. Rony also tried to fully lift Jokowi's leadership style to regulate Jakarta, from blusukan action to other innovations.

At its peak, Rony and the entire film crew are proud to simultaneously screen Jokowi's film Kitadi cinemas throughout Indonesia on November 20, 2014. Or when Jokowi only served as President of Indonesia for one month.

Problems arise. The film was not well received as Jokowi's administration insisted on increasing fuel prices. As a result, only one day it aired, the next day, November 21, 2014, the film was withdrawn from theaters.

"The broadcast has been delayed. The increase in fuel prices has resulted in a hot political situation. So we'll wait. If the atmosphere is safe, it's just playing again. It's a shame that because of the heat, fuel is then lazy to watch the film. Because there are many role models in it," said the producer of Jokowi's film is Kita, KK Dheeraj as quoted on page covering 6.com, November 21, 2014.
