Preface

Kata Pengantar

As the Regional Head of Culture Department of the Goethe-Institut in Southeast Asia, Australia and New Zealand, I am very happy to present the second edition of the ChopShots Documentary Film Festival. This documentary film festival focusing on new and upcoming ChopShots Documentary Film Festival Southeast Asia will kick off on the 22nd of April in Jakarta, Indonesia.

Sebagai Kepala Bagian Program Budaya Goethe-Institut untuk wilayah Asia Tenggara, Australia dan Selandia Baru, dengan gembira saya persembahkan edisi kedua ChopShots Documentary Film Festival Southeast Asia. Festival film dokumenter yang berfokus pada film-film dokumenter baru dari Asia Tenggara ini akan dimulai pada 22 April 2014 di Jakarta, Indonesia.

The many films sent in overwhelmed us: more than 247 films from 49 countries! But we were also thrilled and moved by the quality of films, the range of topics, the different styles and the many stories told. There is a huge potential for film in this region and we hope this thrive for good film shall continue in the future.

Kami merasa bangga melihat betapa banyaknya film yang kami terima: lebih dari 247 film dari 49 negara! Tapi kami juga amat gembira dan tersentuh karena meningkatnya mutu film, rentang topiknya, ragam gaya nya, serta kisah-kisah yang diceritakan. Potensi film di kawasan ini sungguh besar dan kami harap film-film bagus akan terus bermunculan di masa yang akan datang.

ChopShots is part of the engagement of the Goethe-Institut in the region to foster the documentary film scene. With the generous support of the European Union we have been able to set up DocNet Southeast Asia, a regional network for the documentary film scene. With the ChopShots - Documentary Film Festival Southeast Asia we aim to provide a platform for all those talents out there and to make documentary film from Southeast Asia accessible to more viewers around the world. I would like to thank all the filmmakers who have provided all these wonderful films. I also want to thank our partners in Indonesia and the region who enabled this festival to happen and of course the European Union for their financial support. A festival would be nothing without the dedication of the people who set it up. I thus also want to use this chance to thank the ChopShots Team who has worked relentlessly to make the festival a full success. Let us hope that we will have many more festivals in the years to come.

Katrin Sohns FESTIVAL DIRECTOR

ChopShots Documentary Film Festival Southeast Asia adalah bagian dari keterlibatan Goethe-Institut di kawasan ini untuk membantu perkembangan film dokumenter. Dengan dukungan yang besar dari Uni Eropa kami telah berhasil mendirikan DocNet Southeast Asia, sebuah jaringan regional untuk film dokumenter. Di ChopShots Documentary Film Festival Southeast Asia kami ingin menyediakan suatu wadah bagi bakatbakat yang ada agar film dokumenter dari Asia Tenggara dapat diakses oleh lebih banyak lagi pemirsa dari seluruh penjuru dunia. Saya ingin mengucapkan terima kasih kepada semua sineas yang telah mendukung festival luar biasa ini. Terima kasih juga saya ucapkan kepada para mitra kami di Indonesia dan di kawasan Asia Tenggara yang telah membuat festival ini terlaksana, dan juga tak lupa kepada Uni Eropa atas dukungan finansial yang diberikan. Sebuah festival tak akan ada artinya tanpa dedikasi dari orang-orang yang menyelenggarakannya. Dalam hal ini, saya juga ingin mengucapkan terima kasih pada tim ChopShots yang telah bekerja keras demi menyukseskan festival ini. Mari kita berharap agar lebih banyak festival diadakan di tahun-tahun mendatang.


Welcome to ChopShots 2nd edition!

Selamat datang di ChopShots edisi kedua!

Taking off with a successful start to ChopShots in late 2012 we are very happy to present to you this year’s selection of outstanding documentary films from around the world with a focus on films from and about Southeast Asia, India, China, Korea and Japan.

Berangkat dari kesuksesan ChopShots di penghujung tahun 2012, dengan gembira kami persembahkan film-film dokumenter pilihan tahun ini dari seluruh dunia dengan fokus pada film-film yang berasal dari atau bercerita mengenai Asia Tenggara, India, China, Korea dan Jepang.

We were happy to find very strong films among the 247 submissions that we received this year and indeed we see an increase in quality of the films made in the region by newcomers to the craft. That’s the spirit!

Kami merasa senang mendapatkan film-film yang sangat kuat dari 247 film yang kami terima tahun ini. Kami juga melihat adanya peningkatan kualitas dalam film-film yang dibuat oleh para pendatang baru di kawasan ini.

It is exciting to note that documentary production is booming in Asia and never before have there been so many talented filmmakers tackling meaningful subjects in their unique ways that are made up of a blend of journalism, narrative film and television entertainment. Author driven documentaries have long become a cultural form and I remain hopeful that the industry in Asia will follow and make available resources to further the art of documentary filmmaking in order to strengthen local voices and perspectives that trigger important debates and deepen our understanding of the world around us and ultimately help us to better understand ourselves.

Catatan yang menggembirakan adalah bahwa produksi film dokumenter di Asia meningkat tajam dengan begitu banyak pembuat film berbakat membahas isu-isu penting dengan cara unik yang merupakan campuran antara jurnalisme, narasi film dan hiburan televisi. Film dokumenter yang dibuat dengan berangkat dari kekuatan dan kekhasan sudut pandang pembuatnya sejak lama sudah menjadi budaya dan saya yakin bahwa industri film dokumenter di Asia akan mengikuti dan menyediakan sumber daya yang dibutuhkan untuk memajukan seni perfilman dokumenter. Dengan demikian, suara-suara yang sejauh ini belum terdengar akan mengemuka, memicu pembahasan dan memberi pemahaman mendalam mengenai dunia sekitar kita yang pada akhirnya dapat membantu kita memahami diri kita sendiri.

The best documentaries of those we selected illuminate a person, an event or an issue in powerful ways, giving thousands or potentially even millions of people a chance to better understand something they knew little or nothing about. I am certain that in today’s atomized media world with zillions of bites of data we have never had a greater need for clarity and meaningful discourse. Let me invite you on an exciting journey through the personal worlds of remarkable protagonists and their struggles that these documentary films depict. Listen closely and you might hear some truth that these films speak.

Marc Eberle ARTISTIC DIRECTOR

Film-film dokumenter pilihan kami melihat dari dekat kehidupan seseorang, satu kejadian atau isu dengan saksama. Film-film ini memberi kesempatan bagi ribuan atau mungkin jutaan orang untuk mengetahui lebih banyak mengenai sesuatu yang sebelumnya hanya sedikit atau bahkan tidak sama sekali bersinggungan dengan kehidupan mereka. Saya yakin di dunia media yang canggih seperti saat ini dengan jumlah bit data yang tak terhitung banyaknya, kebutuhan kita akan kejelasan serta wacana yang berarti, menjadi lebih tinggi dari sebelumnya. Saya ingin mengajak Anda mengikuti perjalanan menyenangkan melalui dunia tokoh-tokoh utama yang mengagumkan dan perjuangan mereka seperti yang dipaparkan oleh film-film dokumenter pilihan kami. Simak baik-baik, dan mungkin Anda dapat mendengarkan suara kejujuran yang diutarakan film-film ini.

DocNet Southeast Asia Welcome to the second edition of ChopShots Documentary Film Festival Southeast Asia, brought to you by DocNet Southeast Asia!

One of the core programs of DocNet Southeast Asia is education, where Southeast Asian filmmakers participate in small-group workshops with international tutors that assist them in improving their ongoing projects. Some direct impact of DocNet Southeast Asia’s educational programs can be seen in this edition of ChopShots. Alumni of DocNet Campus 2012 presented their feature-length documentaries that are now competing in the international competition of ChopShots 2014. In 2013 DocNet Southeast Asia contributed to the strengthening of the recently built ties between different filmmakers in the region as well as the newly formed relationships with international organisations and festivals abroad. After attending the strategy seminar in 2012, Ally Derks director of the International Documentary Film Festival Amsterdam (IDFA) decided to do a focus on SEA documentary at IDFA 2013. DocNet Southeast Asia has managed to further raise awareness about the potential and resources within Southeast Asia by strengthening the connection between filmmakers and institutions from this region. Southeast Asian films selected by ChopShots 2012 travelled to 8 Southeast Asian countries throughout 2013 as well as outside the region in the beginning of 2014. Although presenting no quick-fix, DocNet Southeast Asia has initiated first steps toward a more vibrant, recognized and outward-looking documentary film scene in the region. Check out our website to see our activities and our filmmakers at:

DocNet Southeast Asia Selamat datang di edisi kedua ChopShots Documentary Film Festival Southeast Asia, yang dipersembahkan oleh DocNet Southeast Asia! Salah satu program inti dari DocNet Southeast Asia adalah pendidikan, di mana para pembuat film Asia Tenggara berpartisipasi dalam lokakarya kecil dengan tutor internasional yang memberi masukan untuk proyek mereka yang tengah berlangsung. Beberapa dampak langsung program pendidikan DocNet Southeast Asia dapat dilihat dalam ChopShots Documentary Film Festival Southeast Asia edisi kali ini. Para alumni DocNet Campus 2012 dapat menyertakan film panjang dokumenter mereka yang dilombakan dalam kategori International Competition di ChopShots Documentary Film Festival Southeast Asia tahun ini. Di tahun 2013 DocNet Southeast Asia turut membantu memperkuat hubungan antara pembuat film di kawasan Asia Tenggara dengan berbagai institusi serta festival internasional. Setelah menghadiri seminar strategis DocNet di tahun 2012, Ally Derks, Direktur International Documentary Film Festival Amsterdam (IDFA) memutuskan untuk berfokus pada dokumenter Asia Tenggara pada IDFA 2013. DocNet Southeast Asia berhasil meningkatkan kesadaran tentang potensi sumberdaya di Asia Tenggara dengan memperkuat hubungan antara pembuat film dengan institusi di kawasan ini. Film-film dari Asia Tenggara pilihan Chopshots 2012 berkeliling ke delapan negara Asia Tenggara sepanjang tahun 2013, termasuk di luar kawasan tersebut pada awal tahun 2014. Walaupun tidak berarti memberikan perbaikan dalam semalam, tapi DocNet Southeast Asia telah memrakarsai langkah awal menuju dunia film dokumenter yang lebih hidup, lebih dikenali dan lebih maju di kawasan ini.

OPENING FILM

Opening Film: Jalanan Jalanan // DirecteD by Daniel ZiV // inDOneSia // 2013 // 107 min // Original with engliSh SUbtitleS Jalanan tells the captivating story of Boni, Ho and Titi, three gifted charismatic street musicians in Jakarta over a tumultuous 5-year period in their own lives and that of Indonesia. The film follows the young marginalized musicians and their neverbefore-seen sub-culture, while also painting a striking, moody and intimate portrait of Indonesia’s frenzied capital city. Using the powerful soundtrack of the musicians’ original compositions to drive the film, it traces their elusive quest for identity and love in the day-to-day of a city overrun by the effects of globalization and corruption.

Daniel Ziv Daniel Ziv has worked in Jakarta as a writer, photographer & magazine editor for over a decade. He founded the monthly Djakarta! City Life Magazine & authored the urban pop culture book Jakarta Inside Out. He holds an MA in Asian Studies & is fluent in Indonesian. Jalanan is his first feature-length film.

Jalanan menceritakan kisah menawan dari Boni, Ho dan Titi, tiga orang musisi jalanan Jakarta yang karismatik selama kurun waktu lima tahun kehidupan mereka dan kehidupan bangsa Indonesia yang hiruk-pikuk. Film ini mengikuti perjalanan para musisi pinggiran dan sub-kultur mereka yang selama ini belum pernah terlihat, sekaligus memaparkan potret mencolok, intim dan menohok dari Ibu kota Indonesia yang sesak ini. Dengan menggunakan lagu gubahan asli yang kuat dari para musisi tersebut untuk menggerakkan film, film ini menelusuri pencarian mereka akan identitas dan cinta dalam kehidupan sehari-hari di kota yang dilanda dampak globalisasi dan korupsi.

International Competition Kompetisi Internasional This years twelve premium films manage to captivate their audience with well-crafted story arcs.

Tahun ini dua belas film terkemuka berhasil merebut perhatian penonton dengan kisahkisah yang ditulis dengan baik.

Some films, such as The Cat That Lived a Million Times, manage to dissect the social fabric of the culture they focus on with their reflective gaze. Other films are more outgoing and celebrate what makes the world go round in their cultural sphere such as Beyond All Boundaries from India, where cricket is the new substitute religion and unifying factor for a whole nation.

Beberapa film, seperti film The Cat That Lived a Million Times, berhasil membedah tatanan sosial dari budaya dengan pandangan yang reflektif. Film-film lainnya lebih santai dan merayakan hal-hal yang terjadi sehari-hari dalam lingkup budaya mereka seperti misalnya Beyond All Boundaries dari India, yang menceritakan tentang cricket sebagai agama pengganti baru dan faktor pemersatu bangsa.

9 Muses of Star Empire comments on the growing influence of commercialisation on the dreams and aspirations of South Korea’s young generation. When some of the female protagonists seem increasingly lost in their quest for a life of glamour and show business, we see that just wanting to be successful isn’t enough. How about wanting a democratic system? Wukan: The Flame of Democracy follows an unprecedented event in China where a village was finally allowed to select their leaders democratically. Is democracy alone enough?

Film 9 Muses of Star Empire berkomentar tentang pengaruh komersialisasi yang kian meningkat terhadap impian dan aspirasi generasi muda Korea Selatan. Ketika beberapa dari tokoh utama wanita tampaknya tersesat dalam pencarian kehidupan glamor dan bisnis pertunjukan, kita melihat bahwa keinginan untuk menjadi sukses semata tidaklah cukup. Bagaimana dengan keinginan akan sistem yang demokratis? Wukan: The Flame of Democracy mengikuti sebuah kejadian yang belum pernah terjadi sebelumnya, saat sebuah desa di China akhirnya boleh memilih pemimpinnya secara demokratis. Apakah demokrasi saja sudah cukup?

We sense echoes from the forefathers of experimental documentary storytelling in the elegiac sequences of War Is A Tender Thing. By contrast, By The River communicates its message in a much more hands-off approach. Refreshingly different the film allows us to witness the remote world of long time Karen refugees in Thailand. Die Before Blossom shows how competing streams of religion and social norms are introduced into the educational system in Indonesia and create an increasing cultural divide by governing how young girls are brought up into the society of both conservatives and liberals respectively. The Last Refuge, Happiness, Sickfuckpeople, Masked Monkey and Madam Phung’s Last Journey also bear the quality of well-made documentaries that gives us a sense of the sublime – the understanding that the experience of the journey was at once a pleasure to the eye as music is to the ear, but is mingled with horrors, and often with despair.

Be inspired!

Kita bisa merasakan getaran pendahulu dokumenter eksperimental dalam elegi War is A Tender Thing. Kebalikannya, film By the River menyampaikan pesan lewat pendekatan yang lebih melepas kontrol. Film yang segar dan berbeda ini mengajak kita menyaksikan kehidupan terpencil dari para pengungsi etnis Karen di Thailand. Die Before Blossom menunjukkan persaingan pengaruh agama dan norma sosial yang berjejalan di dalam sistem pendidikan di Indonesia yang kemudian dapat dirasakan oleh anak-anak perempuan yang sedang beranjak remaja, baik yang berlatar belakang liberal maupun koservatif. The Last Refuge, Happiness, Sickfuckpeople, Masked Monkey dan Madam Phung’s Last Journey juga merupakan film-film dokumenter bermutu tinggi yang membuat kita mengalami sesuatu yang luhur - pemahaman bahwa pengalaman yang didapat dari perjalanan tersebut memberi kenikmatan mata laksana musik bagi telinga, tapi sekaligus bercampur kengerian, dan sering kali kesedihan.

Semoga Anda terinspirasi!

Masked Monkey – The Evolution of Darwin’s Theory maSKeD mOnKey – the eVOlUtiOn OF Darwin’S theOry // DirecteD by iSmail Fahmi lUbiSh // inDOneSia // 2013 // 110 min // Original with engliSh SUbtitleS The common opinion concerning Darwin’s theory of evolution is that man originates from the monkey. This film explores the possibility that the two species are actually of the same origin and discovers the similarities between them. The filmmaker takes an extraordinary approach by observing monkey puppet shows in Jakarta. For the show, the puppeteers train their monkeys to act and behave like men. Similarly, men are also trained by their environment and society to act according to certain rules and values. While the puppeteers control the monkeys, the puppeteers are controlled by their bosses.

Pendapat umum yang biasa kita dengar tentang teori evolusi Darwin adalah bahwa manusia berasal dari kera. Film ini menjajaki kemungkinan bahwa dua spesies ini beranjak dari asal yang sama dan menemukan kesamaan antar mereka. Sang pembuat film mengambil pendekatan yang tak lazim dengan cara mengamati pertunjukan topeng monyet di Jakarta. Para dalang melatih monyet-monyet mereka untuk bersikap seperti manusia. Sama halnya dengan manusia, yang sebenarnya dilatih oleh lingkungan dan masyarakat untuk bersikap sesuai dengan aturan serta nilai tertentu. Jika para monyet dikendalikan oleh dalangnya, maka sang dalang juga dikendalikan oleh bos mereka.

Living on boats, they only step on land to bury the dead. Since giving up their seafaring ways to relocate to land, they have seen their tradition and culture slowly fading with the passing of time. Developments along the coast of Johor have severely diminished the sea life and they are now struggling to feed themselves. They face a doubtful future. The sea is the only thing they know. They do not want to leave it and to work on land. This documentary shows the plight of Orang Laut’s fight for their free world.

Pembangunan di sepanjang pantai Johor telah menghilangkan kehidupan laut, dan kini mereka harus berjuang hanya untuk mencari makan. Suku Orang Laut kini menghadapi masa depan yang gamang.

Ada tangan-tangan yang bergerak, tangan yang sedang bekerja, tangan yang sedang makan, dan tangan yang berkomunikasi. Ia mengumpulkan banyak cerita dari tangan-tangan tersebut.

The Windows cUa SĂ´ // hanOi DOclab // Vietnam // 2013 // 23 min // Original with engliSh SUbtitleS A set of four films in a film from different directors, The Windows revolves around the concept of looking at and into windows that open to different worlds. This set is a diverse collection of visuals and ideas ranging from abstract visualization to realistic depiction of events, like an observant kaleidoscope of daily life in Vietnam. An experimental approach, a close resemblance of documentary or even staged documentary, this unique collective experiment allows individual voices to rise.

Empat film dari beberapa sutradara yang dirangkai menjadi satu film, The Windows, berkisar tentang konsep melihat lewat jendela yang terbuka ke dunia lain. Kumpulan visual dan ide berbeda ini, dari visualisasi abstrak ke penggambaran kejadian secara jelas, tampak seperti kaleidoskop kehidupan sehari-hari di Vietnam. Sebuah pendekatan eksperimental, mirip sebuah dokumenter atau bahkan dokumenter rekaan, kumpulan pengalaman unik ini mengizinkan suara-suara individu untuk terdengar.

In the western world, people are usually conditioned, even groomed, to believe in a life of “happily ever after”. Yet that can be so far from reality. The dark side of reality must get the respect it deserves. There is no white without black, no happiness without understanding sadness. Our fable introduces us to the most handsome man in the world, Ajang, and the most beautiful woman in the universe, the temptress Achol. From the mythical Dinka world in South Sudan, the story continues to the dreams of living a happy life in Norway.

Dalam masa krisis keuangan, kekuatiran akan pengangguran dan migrasi, orang-orang mencari dunia baru demi kehidupan yang baru dan lebih baik. Di negaranegara barat orang-orang biasanya terkondisikan, bahkan dibentuk untuk mempercayai frasa “hidup bahagia selamanya”. Namun, kenyataan bisa sangat berbeda. Sisi gelap kenyataan tidak bisa dipungkiri. Tak ada putih tanpa hitam, tak ada kebahagiaan tanpa kesedihan. Kisah kita ini memperkenalkan kita pada pria paling rupawan sedunia, Ajang, dan wanita paling cantik sejagat raya, Achol, sang pemikat. Dari dunia mitologi Dinka di Sudan Selatan, kisah ini berlanjut ke impian hidup bahagia di Norwegia.

Three and a half years later, staggering news arrives: the boy has been found, thousands of miles from home in Spain, saying he survived a mind-boggling ordeal of kidnap and torture by shadowy captors. His family is ecstatic to have him back no matter how strange the circumstances are – but things become far stranger once he returns to Texas.

Kisah yang rumit dan berbelit ini bermula dari peristiwa yang meresahkan yaitu hilangnya Nicholas Barclay, seorang anak lelaki berusia 13 tahun dari Texas yang lenyap tanpa jejak.

Ia mengaku berhasil menyelamatkan diri dari peristiwa penculikan dan penyiksaan membingungkan, yang dilakukan oleh para penculiknya yang misterius.

The Missing Picture l’image manQUante // DirecteD by rithy Panh // cambODia, France // 2013 // 92 min // Original with engliSh SUbtitleS For many years, I have been looking for the missing picture: a photograph taken between 1975 and 1979 by the Khmer Rouge when they ruled over Cambodia. On its own, of course, an image cannot prove mass murder, but it gives us cause for thought, prompts us to meditate, to record history. I searched for it vainly in the archives, in old papers, in the country villages of Cambodia. Today I know: this image must be missing. I was not really looking for it; would it not be obscene and insignificant? So I created it. What I give you today is neither the picture nor the search for a unique image, but the picture of a quest: the quest that cinema allows.

Selama bertahun-tahun, aku mencari gambar yang hilang: selembar foto yang diambil antara tahun 1975-1979 oleh Khmer Merah saat mereka menguasai Kamboja. Sebuah foto semata tak dapat membuktikan pembantaian massal yang terjadi, tapi benda itu bisa memberikan alasan untuk sebuah pemikiran, mendorong kita untuk merenung, untuk mencatat sejarah. Aku mencarinya tanpa hasil di arsip-arsip, dokumen-dokumen tua, di desa-desa Kamboja. Kini aku baru menyadarinya, foto itu tidak ada. Aku tidak ingin mencarinya lagi. Lalu, apakah foto itu kehilangan maknanya dan menjadi tidak penting? Maka, kuputuskan untuk menciptakannya. Apa yang aku berikan padamu kini bukanlah foto itu atau pencarian sebuah gambar yang unik. Yang aku berikan adalah gambaran atas sebuah pencarian: pencarian yang dimungkinkan oleh sinema.

A World Not Ours a wOrlD nOt OUrS // DirecteD by mahDi FleiFel // lebanOn, UK, DenmarK // 2012 // 93 min // Original with engliSh SUbtitleS

For most of us, our identity is taken for granted - who we are, where we come from, and what we are is rarely questioned. But not for the Palestinians, who are constantly required to show proof of identity, while their existence as native inhabitants of a land which no longer exists is perpetually denied or challenged. A World Not Ours is an intimate and often humorous portrait of three generations of exile in the refugee camp of Ein el-Helweh in southern Lebanon. Based on personal recordings, family archives and historical footage from the last 20 years, the film is an attempt to record what is being forgotten and to mark what should not be erased from collective memory.

Bagi sebagian besar dari kita, identitas kita sudah kita terima begitu saja - siapa kita, asal kita dan apa pekerjaan kita, jarang dipert anyakan. Tapi tidak bagi bangsa Palestina yang senantiasa harus menunjukkan bukti identitas, sementara keberadaan mereka sebagai penghuni asli tanah yang tak lagi berwujud, terus-menerus dibantah atau ditantang. A World Not Ours adalah potret intim dan kadang menggelikan dari tiga generasi pelarian dalam kamp pengungsi di Ein el-Helweh, sebelah selatan Lebanon. Berdasarkan catatan pribadi, arsip keluarga dan rekaman historis selama lebih dari 20 tahun, film ini adalah upaya untuk mencatat apa yang telah dilupakan, dan untuk menandai apa yang seharusnya tidak kita hapus dari ingatan kolektif.

Birhan Woldu’s picture was beamed round the world during Live Aid. It was a horrifying image of a child starving to death – probably dead already – that would shock the audience to action.

Struggling to survive with increasing fishing restrictions on a paradise coral island of Eastern Malaysia, Indanina, a sea gypsy girl, sees her colorful, innocent world endangered. When she is forced to move to town with her family, she embarks on a brutal transition to an uncaring modern world.

Foto Birhan Woldu dipancarkan ke seluruh dunia ketika konser Live Aid berlangsung. Foto itu adalah gambar seorang anak yang hampir mati kelaparan - mungkin sudah mati - yang mengguncang para pemirsanya untuk segera melakukan tindakan.

Berjuang untuk meloloskan diri dari makin meningkatnya larangan memancing di sebuah pulau indah di timur Malaysia, Indanina, seorang gadis gypsy laut, melihat dunianya yang murni dan penuh warna sedang terancam. Saat ia dipaksa pindah ke kota bersama keluarganya, transisi brutal ke dunia modern yang tak punya kepedulian harus ia alami.

The call for entry is open to the public, but the participants are selected based on their previous experience and the project proposal that they submit. The main objective of DocNet Campus is to assist Southeast Asian filmmakers to access a greater film market beyond their territory. Therefore, international tutors with experiences in the film industry are engaged to mentor the participants in improving their proposal, plans and strategies for production and distribution – skills that are not abundant in Southeast Asia, due to the lack of film infrastructure and market for documentaries.

DocNet Campus adalah lokakarya dokumenter tujuh hari bagi para sineas Asia Tenggara yang akan diadakan di Jakarta pada 21-27 April 2014. Pendaftaran dibuka untuk umum, namun pesertanya dipilih berdasarkan pengalaman mereka sebelumnya dan proposal proyek yang mereka kirimkan. Tujuan utama DocNet Campus adalah untuk membantu para sineas Asia Tenggara mengakses pasar film yang lebih besar di luar wilayah mereka. Oleh karena itu, para tutor internasional dengan pengalaman menjadi produser diikutsertakan untuk mengajar para partisipan memperbaiki proposal, rencana dan strategi mereka untuk produksi dan distribusi - keahlian yang tidak banyak didapat di Asia Tenggara, karena ketiadaan infrastruktur film dan pasar untuk film dokumenter.

Selected participants are working with the tutors in small groups to discuss and improve their projects. However, the following DocNet Campus Master Classes are open and free for the public to attend:

Peserta terpilih akan bekerja dengan tutor dalam kelompok kecil untuk membahas dan memperbaiki proyek mereka. Akan tetapi, kelas-kelas DocNet Campus di bawah ini terbuka untuk umum dan gratis untuk dihadiri publik:

Exhibition: Early Images of Southeast Asia 16-27 April 2014 GoetheHaus

98

Jl. Sam Ratulangi 9-15, Jakar ta Pusat

The exhibition sheds light on early-recorded moving images of Southeast Asia. Once a dream paradise eyed by Western powers, some early moving images of Southeast Asia reflect the gaze of the West who were charmed by its beauty and were determined to keep its influence in the region.

Pameran ini menyoroti awal mula gambar bergerak yang mencatat tentang Asia Tenggara. Sebagai surga yang diimpikan kekuatan Barat, film-film kuno ini mencerminkan lirikan Barat yang terpesona akan kecantikan kawasan ini, dan tekad mereka untuk mempertahankan pengaruhnya di sana.

However, some early images also came from the forefathers of Southeast Asian cinema. These pieces originated from the few Southeast Asian pioneers of image recording that have been preserved by the following generations as personal treasures and national legacies.

Akan tetapi, beberapa gambar awal juga datang dari pendahulu sinema Asia Tenggara. Gambar-gambar ini dihasilkan dari beberapa pelopor perekam gambar di Asia Tenggara yang dilestarikan oleh para penerusnya sebagai warisan keluarga dan kebanggaan negara.

ChopShots is proud to present this rare collection of moving images of Southeast Asia, curated from diligent and generous archive institutions, family members and film institutions all over the world – who see immense value in looking back to move forward.

ChopShots dengan bangga mempersembahkan koleksi langka gambar bergerak Asia Tenggara, yang dikumpulkan dari institusi film dan anggota keluarga yang murah hati serta melihat pentingnya merefleksi masa lalu untuk melangkah maju.
