Winner of Best Documentary 2013 Busan International Film Festival, Best Documentary 2014 Melbourne International Film Festival, Official Selection 2014 DOK Leipzig Film Festival, The Margaret Mead Filmmaker Award Finalist 2014 Margaret Mead Film Festival
JALANAN ('Streetside') tells the captivating story of Boni, Ho & Titi, three gifted, charismatic street musicians in Jakarta, over a tumultuous 5-year period in their own lives and that of Indonesia. The film follows these young marginalized musicians and their never before seen sub-culture, while also painting a striking, moody, and intimate portrait of Indonesia's frenzied capital city. Using the powerful soundtrack of the musicians' original compositions to drive the film, it traces their elusive quest for identity and love in a city's day-to-day overrun by the effects of globalization and corruption.
Jalanan became the first documentary in Indonesian history to receive a full theatrical release in commercial cinemas. It screened for 34 consecutive days at theaters in five major Indonesian cities. The documentary enjoyed additional prominence and media attention when screened in April 2014 by Jakarta's Governor Basuki Tjahaja Purnama at City Hall for 300 senior government officials.
Jalanan is the first Indonesian feature-length film to win the best documentary award in the 18 years of the Busan festival, the biggest in Asia, and one of the world's most prestigious.
“The Busan Festival jury rewarded the film for its ‘humanizing and respectful look into the class system of Indonesia’ told through ‘heart-warming and redemptive characters in a non-sentimental fashion’.”
After the world premiere at the Busan International Film Festival, Jalanan went to screen at 65 other international film festivals in 31 countries, winning 12 awards.
