SPONSORED & SUPPORTED BY EMBASSIES & CULTURAL CENTERS PARTNERS MEDIA PARTNERS SUPPORTING TENANTS Foreword Foreword 6 Selamat datang di Jakarta International Film Welcome to the 12th Jakarta International Film Festival ke-12! Festival! Dalam banyak hal, festival tahun ini bisa jadi yang paling berkesan sampai sejauh ini. Ancaman serius terhadap kelangsungan festival karena kurangnya dana yang ada membuat kami meluncurkan program publik donasi. Respon antusias dari publik membuat kami percaya bahwa festival ini harus ada. Kami ucapkan terima kasih yang mendalam kepada semua pihak yang telah mendukung pelaksanaan JIFFest tahun ini. Dengan semangat “And JIFFest for all!”, kami kembali ke Jakarta Selatan setelah beberapa tahun absen. Sebagian besar pemutaran digelar di Blitzmegaplex Pacific Place sebagai official screening venue, dan kegiatan pendukung seperti workshop dan seminar diselenggarakan di Binus International University. Selain kedua tempat ini, beberapa pemutaran lain akan diselenggarakan di Kineforum. In many ways, the festival this year will go down in history as the most heartfelt yet. The serious threat of being cancelled due to the lack of funding support prompted us to launch a public donation drive, the first time JIFFest ever did such. We could not be more thankful enough for the mass support that make the festival this year happen. As you can see in the Friends of JIFFest list in this program guide, this year the festival is aimed at reaching out for wider audiences. With the spirit “And JIFFest for all!”, we venture into the new territory of Southern Jakarta area after a few years of absence. Most of the screenings will be held in Blitzmegaplex Pacific Place, while fringe events of workshops, seminar and discussion will be held in Binus International University. In the meantime, select screenings will also be held in art-house cinema Kineforum. Untuk kali pertama, JIFFest akan dibuka dengan film dokumenter Waiting for “Superman”. Tema film ini yang mengangkat perjuangan dan harapan anak-anak di Amerika Serikat untuk mendapatkan pendidikan yang lebih baik sesuai dengan spirit JIFFest tahun ini. Meskipun selalu dihadang hambatan, kami percaya bahwa festival ini harus terus diadakan untuk membuat kota Jakarta menjadi kota yang nyaman dan penuh dengan keragaman budaya. Tahun ini kami memilih film penutup Biutiful, karya sutradara Alejandro Gonzalez Inarritu. Film-film karya Inarritu selalu mendapat tempat di hati penonton JIFFest karena festival ini selalu memutar karya beliau. Di antara kedua film ini akan hadir film-film internasional terpilih. Dari Kenya sampai Irak, dari Australia sampai Taiwan. Film-film ini hanya akan diputar pada pelaksanaan festival saja, sehingga rugi jika anda lewatkan. Mari kita buat festival tahun ini menjadi festival yang paling berkesan! For the first time, JIFFest will open with a documentary film, Waiting for “Superman”. As the film unfolds struggle and hope of American children of getting better education, the similar theme can be said about the present state of the festival itself. Despite the constant struggle, we believe that the festival is worth being held to enrich the cultural diversity in the town, which has made the city worth living in. The festival will end with Biutiful, the latest film by director Alejandro Gonzalez Inarritu, whose past films have always been shown in the previous editions of the festival. Along the way, we still bring the fine selection of international cinema, from Kenya to Iraq, from a farm in Australia to a suburban area in Taipei. As all of the films screened are only shown during the festival period, take some time out to embrace these wonderful films. Let’s make the festival this year a very memorable one and have a good festival!

The press conference was held to declare that the festival is at the danger of being cancelled indefinitely due to the lack of substantial funding. Around 100 people from media and film industry showed up to support JIFFest. In addition, Facebook and Twitter users had showed their support by adding the hash-tag of #SaveJIFFest prior to the press conference, and this continued for days and weeks afterwards. Everybody was shocked to learn that JIFFest, the first and foremost international film festivals in Indonesia, was on the edge of being gone for good. The festival not only launched careers of several prominent Indonesian filmmakers, but also has opened up and expanded knowledge of local filmgoers on the world of film beyond mainstream offering in local cinema. Everybody shared their good memories on JIFFest for the past 11 years. Some are good, some filled with laughter, but all the recollection gave assurance that JIFFest has become one of a very few precious elements that makes Jakarta worth living. A public donation drive was launched following the press conference. Everyone can make their donations to : Yayasan Masyarakat Mandiri Film Indonesia account no. 7420030091 BCA Percetakan Negara Yayasan Masyarakat Mandiri Film Indonesia account no. 122-000-565035-6 Bank Mandiri Teuku Cik Ditiro The donation helps to ensure that the festival will be running in years to come. This is the reason why we want to continue the donation without any time limits. On the following page, you can see the names of donors who have made their contribution as of November 10, 2010. We humbly thank you all for making JIFFest this year, and many years to come, happen. You are indeed FRIENDS OF JIFFEST. Sahabat JiFFest Pada tanggal 14 Oktober 2010, JIFFest mengadakan konferensi pers di Galeri Cipta 3, Taman Ismail Marzuki (TIM), Jakarta. Konferensi pers ini diadakan untuk mengumumkan bahwa festival film ini terancam batal diselenggarakan karena kurangnya dana yang dibutuhkan. Sekitar 100 orang dari media dan para pelaku industri film hadir untuk memberikan dukungan mereka untuk JIFFest. Bahkan sebelum konferensi pers ini digelar, para pengguna Facebook dan Twitter telah menunjukkan dukungan mereka dengan menggunakan tanda pagar #SaveJIFFest, dan hal ini terus berlanjut sampai hari-hari berikutnya. Semua orang terkejut mendengar bahwa JIFFest, festival film internasional pertama di Indonesia, terancam batal untuk selamanya. Festival ini tidak hanya membantu meluncurkan karir bagi beberapa pembuat film ternama Indonesia, tapi juga telah membuka pengetahuan para pecinta film Indonesia tentang film-film bermutu di luar apa yang ditayangkan oleh bioskop lokal. Teman-teman sempat berbagi kenangan tentang JIFFest selama 11 tahun terakhir. Kenangan manis yang penuh dengan tawa dan air mata, semuanya meyakinkan kami bahwa JIFFest telah menjadi salah satu elemen penting yang membuat kota Jakarta ini nyaman untuk ditinggali. Sebuah gerakan pengumpulan donasi diluncurkan bersama dengan konferensi pers tersebut. Semua orang dapat mengirimkan donasi ke: Yayasan Masyarakat Mandiri Film Indonesia No. Rek. 7420030091 BCA cabang Percetakan Negara Yayasan Masyarakat Mandiri Film Indonesia No. Rek. 122-000-565035-6 Bank Mandiri cabang Teuku Cik Ditiro Donasi tersebut meyakinkan kami bahwa festival ini dapat terus berjalan di masa depan. Hal inilah yang membuat kami akan terus membuka kesempatan bagi yang ingin mendukung tanpa ada batasan waktu. Di halaman berikut, teman-teman dapat melihat nama-nama para donatur kami yang telah memberikan kontribusinya sampai tanggal 10 November 2010. Dari lubuk hati yang paling dalam, kami ucapkan terima kasih untuk semua yang telah memungkinkan JIFFest terselenggara tahun ini dan di tahun-tahun berikutnya. Kami bangga memiliki SAHABAT JIFFEST seperti kalian. Friends of JiFFest Ade Candra Aditya Imannudin S. Aditya Novriansyah Ali Mensan Ali Satri Efendi B.

Despite increased spending and politicians’ promises, America’s public-education system, once the best in the world, is now falling and failing the nation’s children. Filmmaker Davis Guggenheim reminds us that education has names: Anthony, Francisco, Bianca, Daisy, and Emily, five children who deserve better education and whose stories make up the engrossing foundation of the film. As he follows a handful of promising kids through a system that inhibits, rather than encourages, academic growth, Guggenheim undertakes an exhaustive review of public education, surveying “drop-out factories” and “academic sinkholes,” methodically dissecting the system and its seemingly intractable problems. Untuk sebuah negara yang berikrar tidak akan membiarkan anak-anak terlantar, sistem pendidikan di Amerika Serikat, yang pernah menjadi yang terbaik di dunia, sekarang malah di ambang kehancuran dan menghancurkan masa depan anak-anak. Sutradara Davis Guggenheim mengingatkan kita bahwa pendidikan mempunyai nama pada Anthony, Francisco, Bianca, Daisy dan Emily, lima anak yang layak mendapatkan pendidikan lebih baik. Cerita kelima anak ini membuka mata sutradara dan kita semua tentang berbagai masalah yang ada di sistem pendidikan Amerika Serikat sekarang ini. Davis Guggenheim is widely known as an award-winning documentary filmmaker. The groundbreaking AN INCONVENIENT TRUTH (screened in JIFFest 2006) won Best Documentary Feature in Academy Awards, and IT MIGHT GET LOUD (2008) was declared as “insightful and musically satisfying” by influential website RottenTomatoes.com. The two documentaries, along with WAITING FOR “SUPERMAN”, are ranked within the top 100 highest-grossing documentaries of all time. Note: Audience Award for Documentary, Sundance Film Festival, 2010. The film is jointly presented by JIFFest and Putera Sampoerna Foundation. Closing Film Closing Film 11 Biutiful Dir.: Alejandro González Iñárritu Spain/Mexico. 2010. 147 min. Drama. Color. 35 mm.

Color. Digital. Indonesian (with English subtitles). NOV 28 / BLZ 7 / 19:15 (by invitation only) This is a unique story about hip-hop culture from Yogyakarta, where urban culture meets Javanese tradition to create a contemporary work. A travelogue piece made by founders of Jogja Hip Hop Foundation, Moh Marzuki / Kill The DJ / Chebolang, from 2003 to 2009, we get to see the true spirit of Javanese in accepting new culture and blend it with their roots to make a new and accessible work of art. Inilah sebuah cerita unik tentang kultur hip hop dari kota Jogja, dimana kebudayaan urban bertemu dengan tradisi Jawa untuk menciptakan produk kesenian kontemporer. Rangkuman perjalanan yang disusun sendiri oleh pendiri Jogja Hip Hop Foundation, Moh Marzuki / Kill The DJ / Chebolang, dari tahun 2003 sampai 2009, film ini memperlihatkan gambaran jelas tentang mentalitas aseli orang Jawa dengan semangat sinkretisme-nya; keterbukaan untuk menerima semua hal yang datang dari luar tradisinya, kemudian dicampurkan dengan akar kebudayaan dantradisi mereka. Muhammad Marzuki was born in Klaten, Central Java, and is a self-taught musician who delved into hip-hop in 1991, later establishing the Jogja Hip-Hop Foundation in 2003.

Much to his surprise, she returns soon after, seemingly completely healed. But something seems different to Lucio and he’ll go to any lengths to find out what happened to his wife. As we follow Lucio’s journey, we enter the world where reality is not as simple as what we perceive in the eyes. Sebuah film yang tidak biasa. Sinopsis yang kami tawarkan malah mungkin menipu anda: Lucio terpaksa memasukkan istrinya yang depresi ke rumah sakit jiwa. Tak lama kemudian, istri Lucio sudah kembali pulang, dan terlihat sudah sembuh. Namun ada hal aneh yang Lucio lihat pada istrinya. Lucio melakukan segala cara untuk mengetahui apa yang terjadi pada istrinya, dan bersama dengan Lucio, kita melihat sebuah dunia yang tidak semudah apa yang kita lihat dengan mata kita sendiri.

DEC 3 / BLZ 6 / 19:30 NOV 28 / BLZ 6 / 22:00 • NOV 29 / BLZ 7 / 21:45 In February 2009, Janus Metz Pedersen followed the lives of Danish soldiers in Afghanistan. He captured everything as a journey into the inner realm of war, as a mixture of boredom in the camp, and as the real fighting is close by. The business of killing during assignments make the soldiers exposed directly to the feeling of extended fear and also to the lust for “action”, the rush of blood, of wanting to kill. This psychologically explosive conflict situation fundamentally alters the mental balance of the soldiers. The film is a gripping documentary of the assassinated Benazir Bhutto, the first woman to lead an Islamic nation. Following in her father’s footsteps as a pillar for democracy, Bhutto was expected to dominate Pakistan’s 2008 elections but the assassination sent Pakistan politics into turmoil. The event shocked the world and transformed her from political messiah into a martyr for the common man. This fast-paced documentary also pulls together rare archival footage and emotional interviews with close family members. Bulan Februari 2009, Janus Metz Pedersen merekam kehidupan sehari-hari tentara Denmark di Afghanistan. Ia menangkap semua emosi yang terpancar, mulai dari rasa bosan mereka saat menunggu “briefing” dan “debriefing”, saat-saat tegang penuh aksi dimana mereka terlibat baku tembak dan merasakan takut sekaligus senang. Konflik psikologis yang dialami para prajurit tersebut cukup mengganggu keseimbangan mental mereka. Film dokumenter yang sangat menggugah perhatian tentang Benazir Bhutto, wanita pertama yang menjadi pemimpin negara Islam. Menyusul jejak ayahnya, Bhutto diharapkan menjadi pemenang pemilihan umum Pakistan tahun 2008, namun pembunuhan terhadap dirinya membawa Pakistan ke kekacauan. Peristiwa yang mengejutkan seluruh dunia ini membawa nama Bhutto menjadi simbol martir perjuangan rakyat biasa.

In this ‘city of angels’, where nowadays religion is only something artificial for most people, the callers (from three different religions) become something important. They not only try to keep their existences, but also struggle to define their own faith in life. Panggilan untuk beribadah bagi banyak agama adalah sesuatu yang agung dan indah. Di kota Los Angeles, di mana agama terkadang menjadi sesuatu yang artificial bagi kebanyakan orang di sini, pemanggil ibadah menjadi profesi penting. Mereka tidak hanya mempertahankan eksistensi profesi, namun harus berjuang untuk menemukan jati diri keyakinan mereka.

With the advent of digital filmmaking, many filmmakers from these regions that were long marginalized in the film community during the days of celluloid, are proving their creative mettle, coming up with several works that match if not outdo their Manila counterparts. It was Alexis’ wish that support be given to these filmmakers, many of whom came up with their feature films or are currently preparing for their feature films, and it is our fervent tribute to Alexis to curate a program of short films that represent what the Philippines, as a country that is diverse and multi-faceted, truly is. – Francis Cruz, Dodo Dayao, Richard Bolisay (Curators) 34 Mouth (Boca) To Siomai Love Philippines. 2010.
