The Jumbo Film Successfully Wins the FFI 2025 Award and Achieves the Title of This Year's Best-Selling Film

The award night of the Indonesian Film Festival (FFI) 2025 became a very historic moment for the animation industry in the homeland. The film titled JUMBO has achieved remarkable success by bringing home the Citra Award for Best Feature Animation. This victory proves that the quality of local animation is now increasingly taken into account and able to compete closely on the prestigious national cinema stage.

The directorial debut of comedian and animator, Ryan Adriandhy, successfully outperformed its strong competitors in that category. JUMBO triumphed over the film PANJI TENGKORAK, which has a fanatical fan base, and WARKOP DKI KARTUN, which evokes nostalgia for the legendary comedy group. This achievement is certainly a sweet proof for Ryan, who is directing a feature film for the first time.

Meanwhile, Ryan Adriandhy as the main captain of this film chose to highlight the hard work of the extraordinary production team. The man in his 30s realizes that animated films are collaborative works that require high patience, so he dedicates the trophy to the hundreds of artists involved in it. "This trophy is for the 420 creators who brought this heartfelt work to life," said Ryan proudly.
