“…Don’t you get attracted with the yellow rice, waving palm trees and the tranquilly standing mountain though clouds cover it? Don’t you hear the sound of the wind-blown shepherd‘s flute? Did you ever see the patient buffalo with its beautiful horns? All of that is singing in my heart. It is so unfortunate to describe it recklessly. I know Indonesia and want to describe it as I see it everyday.” – Ernest Dezentje

We’re very happy to present three works from Jakarta’s Forum Lenteng selected in consultation with Otty Widasari and Yuki Aditya. Forum Lenteng is an egalitarian non-profit organization that was founded in July 2003. The Forum works to develop empowered social and cultural studies as a vehicle to examine the problems of culture in Indonesia and elsewhere. The videos are but a few examples of an extensive scene that circulates around Forum Lenteng and ARKIPEL, their annual festival of documentary and experimental film.

The work will be shown as digital files.
