Kapanlagi.com - To celebrate National Film Day, which falls on March 30th, the Indonesian Film Body (BPI) held a group viewing of LAFRAN. The drama is a biopic of Lafran Pane, the founder of the Islamic Student Association.

Although LAFRAN has not been widely released in national theaters, BPI deliberately chose it. The reason is that the film, starring Dimas Anggara, has a story that brings a sense of nationalism.

"The film LAFRAN is one of the films that instills a sense of nationalism, in line with the journey of its protagonist. It shares the values of heroism through the medium of film," said Celerina Judisari, Head of Business and Film Financing Division at BPI, when met in the Rasuna Said area, South Jakarta, on Sunday (31/3/2024).

1. Heavy Rain for Indonesian Films

Furthermore, Celerina Judisari stated that the Indonesian film industry is very promising this year. Just three months have passed, but there is already a film that has reached nine million viewers.

"Now there is a heavy rain for Indonesian films. Who would have thought that suddenly there is a film that gets nine million viewers and it's very genius. It was unexpected that the film could attract attention. Now the film's development is extraordinary, it can compete," said Celerina.

2. Still Dominated by Horror

Throughout 2024, Indonesian films that have been released are still dominated by horror. However, besides that, there are drama film titles that are worth anticipating such as LAFRAN and DUA HATI BIRU.

"If I have obtained leaked information, this year will definitely be dominated by horror because there is a demand. Don't be mistaken, horror is our strength. In addition to that, there are family drama films," explained the woman who is also active as a producer.
