(JP/Wienda Parwitasari) Following its debut film Posesif (possessive), which took home awards at the 2017 Indonesian Film Festival (FFI 2017), Palari Films production house has returned with Aruna dan Lidahnya (Aruna and Her Palate or The Birdwoman’s Palate). Unlike Posesif , which emphasized the dark side of puppy love, Aruna and Her Palate brings up a rare topic in the Indonesian film industry: Friendships and lives of people in their 30s with food as the base. Adapted from Laksmi Pamuntjak’s novel of the same title, Aruna and Her Palate was directed by Edwin, who also helmed Posesif. “It’s a drama but with many spices,” said Edwin, when being asked to describe the film, during the press conference on Thursday, May 31, in Kemang, South Jakarta. Aruna and Her Palate is a film about friendship and food that is wrapped with intrigue and conspiracy. Aruna (Dian Sastrowardoyo) is a single woman in her 30s. Apart from her job in an NGO, Aruna is passionate about food. One day she is assigned to investigate bird flu cases in several places in Indonesia. She then travels along her friends; the food critic Nad (Hannah Al- Rashid) who wants to write a book and the chef Bono (Nicholas Saputra), who wants to discover authentic recipes of Indonesian culinary. In the middle of their journey, Aruna meets Farish (Oka Antara), a former colleague who secretly keeps an eye on her. The four of them have different traits; Aruna who is still innocent and simple, Bono who is calm and adventurous, Nad who is elegant and Farish who is different from the three. “Basically Farish is a stern person who does everything based on rules,” said Oka Antara. “He’s the opposite of Aruna who depends on her instinct. But that’s where the dynamic happens. Behind the journey of people who like foods, Farish sees foods as something superficial and the function is to make your stomach full. But Farish has a secret beneath his weakness.” Read also: Dian Sastrowardoyo, Nicholas Saputra wrap up filming ‘Aruna dan Lidahnya’ Crews and casts of 'Aruna and Her Palate'; (above, from left to right) producer Muhammad Zaidy, producer Meiske Taurisia, scriptwriter Titien Wattimena and director Edwin. (below, from left to right) Dian Sastrowardoyo, Hannah Al-Rashid and Nicholas Saputra. (JP/Wienda Parwitasari) Meanwhile, Dian described Aruna as a person who has a romantic relationship with foods. “Outside of her work, if she gets to choose between food and a romantic partner, she will choose food,” said Dian who admitted that she liked to eat and try new menus. “Actually the four characters here are different,” said Hannah. “But it’s always interesting for them to gather and talk about love, politics, foods – everyone has different opinions. Sharing opinions, debating – it’s all relatable in real life.” Nicholas, who confessed that he likes to cook for himself and his friends, hoped audiences could relate to the film. “It’s because Indonesians like to chat, make friends and appreciate foods. Even if they try new places to eat, they will always bring their friends. There are also people who travel with foods as their base,” Nicho said. “Hopefully this film can inspire and become a reflection of ourselves.” The director Edwin believed it would be good to adapt the book into a film as the former contained moments where people chatted over food. “It’s how we see humans revealing their thoughts [while eating and chatting],” said Edwin. “The book contains foods that many of them I don’t know. I really wanted to try them, not all people could taste them.” However, not all the places in the book were visited during shooting as they only traveled to four locations, such as Surabaya in East Java, Pamekasan in Madura, East Java, Pontianak in West Kalimantan and Singkawang in West Kalimantan. “The book has around nine to 10 places, but the ones that we chose already represented the textures of the foods in the book,” said Edwin. “We don’t want to try one type of food only, we want to show new things.” Despite of the locations, the film’s producer Meiske Taurisia said they did not go too far from the book. “We have interpretations toward characters that we adapted here, there are conflicts that may not exist in the book, but we make it as something new in the film,” Meiske said. “But we don’t let go important things, starting from their discussion topics, life problems – we keep pushing all of them in this film.” Aruna and Her Palate is slated to be screened at the end of September.

  • ANNUAL REPORT 2006 the International Writing Program At
    ANNUAL REPORT 2006 The International Writing Program at The University of Iowa 1 Greetings, I am pleased to send you the annual report of the International Writing Program (IWP), which for nearly forty years has offered a unique residency for professional writers from around the world. The literary community created by the IWP, a community of poets, fiction writers, essayists, playwrights and screenwriters from more than 120 countries, stands as a testament to the myriad ways in which service to the word, in every language, can help to bridge differences between peoples and nations divided. Only connect—the governing idea of the program—means that we devote the fall to connecting writers to readers, translators, students and people from every background. And this report offers a glimpse into some of the connections that last year’s writers made. I am also pleased to tell you that the IWP is evolving in a dynamic fashion. In 2006 we hosted our first symposium on the Greek island of Paros, bringing together writers from every corner of the earth to discuss what we hold in common. A Greek film maker made a documentary about the symposium and an e-book of the essays written for the occasion is in the works. As I write these lines we are preparing not only for another symposium, on the subject of justice, but also for a tour of the Middle East designed to introduce some of America’s most prominent writers to their counterparts in Syria, Jordan, Israel and the West Bank. In the spring of 2008, in partnership with the University of Iowa’s Young Writers Studio, we will launch a project called Between the Lines, bringing a dozen high school students from six Arabic-speaking countries to take part in a summer writing workshop, which we expect to deepen our connection to this strategic part of the world, creating new networks of writers and readers.

    ProTVF, Volume 4, No. 1, 2020, hlm. 42-63 42 Representasi perempuan dalam kukungan tradisi Jawa pada film Kartini karya Hanung Bramantyo Alycia Putri1, Lestari Nurhajati2 1,2The London School of Public Relations, Jakarta, Indonesia ABSTRAK Film menjadi sebuah media yang saat ini masih diminati khalayak. Melalui film, masyarakat dapat memahami fenomena apa yang pernah dan bahkan sedang terjadi berdasarkan kisah nyata atau hanya fiktif belaka. Film Kartini yang distutradarai oleh Hanung Bramantyo dan diperankan oleh Dian Sastrowardoyo sebagai sosok Kartini merupakan sebuah media yang menampilkan kisah nyata, berdasarkan sejarah kepada masyarakat. Film ini menggambarkan tentang kaum perempuan abad ke-19 yang tidak dapat bebas dan tidak setara dengan laki-laki. Namun yang menarik sosok Kartini digambarkan sebagai sosok perempuan yang bukan hanya tokoh emansipasi, tetapi juga memiliki jiwa revolusioner. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui bagaimana sesungguhnya film Kartini ini mampu merepresentasikan gambaran kesetaraan gender atas sosok perempuan yang berada dalam kukungan tradisi Jawa. Konsep kesetaraan gender menjadi dasar dalam penelitian ini. Gender merupakan suatu pembeda peran, fungsi, status dan tanggungjawab antara laki-laki dengan perempuan sebagai hasil dari bentukan (konstruksi) sosial budaya yang tercipta melalui proses sosialisasi dari satu generasi ke generasi. Penelitian ini menggunakan analisis wacana Sara Mills yang memiliki fokus pada wacana mengenai feminisme; bagaimana perempuan ditampilkan dalam teks, teks yang

Where information has been derived from other sources, I confirm that this has been indicated in the thesis. Signed: 12 February 2019 Word Count: 77,081 Two roads diverged in a wood, and I— I took the one less travelled by, And that has made all the difference. Robert Frost, The Road Not Taken For Fadli. Thanks for being with me in travelling the less trodden path. Acknowledgements Praise to Allah, the Lord Almighty that I can finally get to the end of the tunnel. This thesis will never be in its final version without the constant support, confidence, and intellectually rigorous feedback and inspiration from my supervisor: Prof Ariel Heryanto. He was the one who convinced me that I could do a PhD, something previously unthinkable. He was also the one who convinced me to work in an area which I had never trodden before: masculinities. But, Robert Frost said that the road less travelled has ‘made all the difference’. It did and will always do so. My most sincere appreciation also goes to my two other highly supportive supervisors: Dr Ross Tapsell and Dr Roald Maliangkaij. Their confidence in me, intellectual insights and support have helped me build my self-confidence. They are just exceptionally kind and supportive. I would also like to thank Prof Kathryn Robinson for countless hours of fruitful discussion on masculinities in Indonesia and theories of masculinities.
