Indonesian Cinema – National Culture on Screen.(book review)(book review)

Title :- Indonesian Cinema – National Culture on Screen.

By :- Karl G. Heider

Published :-University of Hawaii Press, Hololulu  (1991), Paperback (150 pages)

Outline :- A well researched and thoughtful book on how 1970- 1990 Indonesian film is scripted, directed, shot and the cultural messages that runs behind the films. Very different to the European focus on character, and different to the Hollywood formula of good winning out over evil. A must read for anyone studying film in any country, as the very different outlook is well explained.
