Kapanlagi.com - The Indonesian film industry is once again showing its prowess. This time through the film ANGKARA MURKA, Indonesia is making a comeback at an international film festival. Yes, ANGKARA MURKA has succeeded in becoming the only representative from Indonesia in the Far East Film Festival 2025.
The debut film of director Eden Junjung will have its global premiere at the Far East Film Festival (FEFF) 2025 in Udine, Italy. Interestingly, ANGKARA MURKA is also nominated for the White Mulberry Award for Best Debut Feature, an award given to the best debut films from Asia.
Before appearing at FEFF, this film also caught attention when it was selected for the NAFF It Project Market at the Bucheon International Fantastic Film Festival (BiFan) 2024 in South Korea. This event is one of the most prestigious genre film festivals in Asia.
Carrying a horror genre with spiritual and psychological touches, this film tells the story of Ambar, a young mother who is forced to work in a sand mine after her husband mysteriously disappears. But what she faces is not only the harshness of life but also an invisible terror that awakens old wounds and traumas.
Not only offering a captivating story, this film also showcases the excellent acting of top actors and actresses such as Raihaanun, Simhala Avadana, Whani Darmawan, Rukman Rosadi, and Aksara Dena.

"Ambar harbors fears, wounds, and loneliness that sound like screams. The strength of her character is born from grief,” said Raihaanun recently.
Eden Junjung is previously known through his short films that succeeded in international festivals, such as HAPPY FAMILY, BURA, and THE INTRUSION. Through ANGKARA MURKA, Eden Junjung elevates Indonesian horror to a higher level and brings horror into a more personal and reflective realm.
“Sometimes the most real horror does not come from the outside, but from the wounds we ignore,” said Eden.
