JAKARTA - Minister of Culture Fadli Zon said film is one of the cultural products that can be used as a medium to record reality, develop imagination and introduce the nation's cultural values.
"Film is a very extraordinary medium, which can record reality, introduce cultural values, and imagination. And the film industry is one of the important pillars in our culture, "said Minister Fadli Zon in an official statement received in Jakarta on Sunday.
When delivering a speech at the 2024 Indonesian Journalists Film Festival (FFWI), which took place in Jakarta on Saturday (11/16), Fadli said Indonesia had a unique cultural diversity and could be appointed as a film story.
Every corner of Indonesia even has the potential to be the background of the film story. According to Menbud Fadli Zon, the beauty can be displayed better if strengthened by the ability of imagination, writing story telling (narration) and scenario.
Fadli Zon later considered that the world of film and the world of journalism cannot be separated.
"I think of course there are many journalists, journalists, who broadcast, write, and criticize the film. That is what makes it inseparable, "said Fadli Zon.
Thus, he stated that the Ministry of Culture continues to be committed to supporting film development as a cultural medium.
"In this era of change, the role of the film as also education and inspiration is increasingly important to maintain and strengthen our identity," he said.
In the event, Fadli Zon also gave appreciation by giving a Lifetime Achievement Award to two film figures and senior journalists, Anwar Fuadi and Ilham Bintang.
The number of Indonesian film viewers has exceeded 66 million people and is expected to be 70 to 80 million people until the end of this year. In a separate event for the FFI Citra Cup press conference on Thursday (11/14), Minister Fadli Zon said he would cooperate with various parties to increase the number of cinema screens in Indonesia to meet the lack of cinema in various regions.
