As a seasoned cinephile who has traversed the globe in pursuit of cinematic gems, I can hardly contain my excitement about this audiovisual co-production agreement between the Netherlands and Indonesia. Having spent countless hours immersed in the vibrant worlds of Indonesian cinema, I have long admired the rich tapestry of stories that unfold on their silver screens. This collaboration not only strengthens cultural ties but also opens up a world of opportunities for filmmakers from both nations to collaborate and create compelling narratives that resonate globally.
On Wednesday, during the first JAFF Market, the Netherlands and Indonesia officially agreed on a partnership for producing audio-visual content.
I had the privilege of participating in the signing ceremony of the treaty, where I, along with Giring Ganesha Djumaryo, Deputy Minister of Culture from Indonesia, and Barbera Wolfensberger, Director-General of Culture and Media at the Dutch Ministry of Education, Culture, and Science, put our signatures. Distinguished officials from both the Netherlands and Indonesia were present to witness this significant event.
This accord sets up a collaborative structure for creating movies, documentaries, animations, and digital content among the two nations. It comes at a time when Indonesia is aiming to become a dominant force in Southeast Asia’s rapidly growing film industry.
At the signing event, Djumaryo stated that this co-production not only fortifies cultural bonds between the two nations but also expands the possibilities for our filmmakers to tap into global assets such as financing and worldwide distribution. By working together, we aspire to have Indonesian movie creators’ works receive greater acclaim on a global level.
As a movie connoisseur, I’ve found myself captivated by the buzzing atmosphere at Indonesia’s pioneering film marketplace, the JAFF Market. Over the course of three exhilarating days, from December 3rd to 5th, in the vibrant city of Yogyakarta (Jogja), this bustling hub has played host to over a hundred production companies and distributors, both local and international, making it a truly global gathering for cinema enthusiasts.
Djumaryo mentioned that JAFF not only showcases Indonesian movies, but it also fosters cooperative environments for both domestic and foreign filmmakers. It broadens professional connections within the industry, and offers learning and skill advancement chances to aspiring filmmakers.
The festival’s schedule features training programs for filmmakers, designed to enhance their technical skills and provide them with opportunities in the industry. These educational aspects coincide with national initiatives aimed at establishing a long-term, viable framework for the nation’s film industry.
Presently, Indonesia stands as the most significant film market within Southeast Asia. The government is taking steps to entice international production by implementing numerous programs. Notably, the Dutch co-production agreement is the latest strategy employed at the JAFF market, which also includes establishing an Indonesia-France Film Lab and a collaboration with the Producers’ Guild of Korea. These initiatives aim to strengthen connections with international entertainment allies.
