JAKARTA - March 30 is celebrated as National Film Day. Every year, the film industry gives birth to talents, works, and an intrigue and refreshing perspective.
The Indonesian film industry also presents many works that cannot be separated from producers such as Meiske Taurisia, Shanty Harmayn. A series of talents such as Dian Sastrowardoyo, Marissa Anita, Sita Nursanti, Siti Fauziah, Tia Hasibuan, and Tissa Biani also have hopes for the Indonesian film industry.
“Film is one way for us to see culture, social phenomena, and respect the great figures around us. I hope that more and more women in the real world can see the figure of themselves represented in Indonesian films and the role of women's filmmakers is becoming increasingly important to make it happen,” Marissa Anita told Netflix Indonesia.
"In the course of my career as an actress, I have learned that success requires readiness to learn and develop. I hope Indonesian women can continue to grow and develop in their career journey,” said Sita Nursanti.
Tissa Biani as one of the young actresses who shines feels proud that Indonesian cinema can be increasingly known globally. This is also a hope for the Kretek Girl in the future.
"Being involved in a film or series that will be broadcast globally is one of my big dreams. Hopefully, the hard work of me and the work that I present with women's filmmakers can entertain, inspire, and represent the story of young Indonesian women who are dreaming and pursuing their passion in their respective fields,” said Tissa Biani.
“ Stories in Indonesian films are now increasingly diverse and become a window of Indonesian women's lives. I hope their stories can be witnessed by the wider community globally, one of which is through streaming platforms like Netflix. Happy National Film Day!" added Dian Sastrowardoyo.
