JAKARTA - Falcon Pictures is collaborating with the Ministry of Culture (Kemenbud) to introduce biopic films that Indonesian audiences are still waiting for, 'Buya Hamka 3'.

As is known, the biopic, which is said to be seven hours long, is divided into three volumes, the first volume of which premieres in April 2023 and the second volume in December 2023.

Frederica as the producer said that Buya Hamka 3 film, although it has not yet found a definite date, is planned to premiere in theaters in 2026.

However, before it is really introduced to the wider public, the film, through collaboration with the Ministry of Education, will first be broadcast to students and students in various parts of Indonesia.

"We are collaborating with the Ministry of Culture, and the Minister (Fadli Zon), to be socialized, so that students throughout Indonesia and students throughout Indonesia can watch it," said Frederica, met after the special screening of the Buya Hamka 3 film in Kuningan, South Jakarta, Wednesday, November 19.

"Later after that, we will release it nationally for Indonesia," added Frederica.

The decision was not without reason. Erica, her nickname, revealed that this step was taken to make the story of a great scholar like Buya Hamka an injection of inspiration and motivation for the younger generation of Indonesia.

This strategy also shows the seriousness of Falcon Pictures and the Ministry of Education in maximizing the value of education and inspiration of the figure of Buya Hamka, known multitalented as ulama, writers, journalists, and educators.

In addition, the Minister of Culture (Menbud) Fadli Zon, who had the opportunity to witness special screening, gave high praise. According to him, Buya Hamka 3 managed to achieve an extraordinary artistic level, so it was very worthy of appreciation by the wider community.

"This film, a biopic film that hopefully can get enormous appreciation from the people of Indonesia," said Fadli.

Furthermore, Fadli emphasized that this film is not just a spectacle, but also contains many lessons, especially related to cultural history and expression.

Another advantage highlighted by Fadli Zon is the quality of the scenario and musical arrangement. The scenario he called very "smooth and fitting", managed to take interesting segments from Buya Hamka's life journey.

In addition, the touch of Purwacaraka music arranger is considered successful in providing a strong "roh" into the film. This combination of slick scenarios and deep music makes this biopic narrative feel alive and flow clear, far from a flat impression.

Regarding when this film can be introduced to students and students, the Minister of Youth and Culture tries to give the best time proposals. "Maybe at the beginning of the year (2026), before fasting or during the fasting month," he concluded.
