“For many entertainment industry observers, Indonesia has long been a country of enormous, but somewhat unfulfilled, potential. What is so very exciting at present is that more of that potential seems to be being realised. In terms of market development, in terms of creativity and growing connections with industries and audiences overseas. We come to JAFF Market to learn more about these trends.”

“We’re excited and charmed by Indonesian cinema over the years and part of the focus of Barunson E&A is to work with like-minded partners to make great Indonesian films for both local and international audiences.

“I have worked on several Indonesian films in recent years as co-producer and have been watching from afar the vibrancy and energy coming out of the country. So I’m really thrilled to experience Indonesian films through the eyes of the local audience and discover up and coming talents coming out of a region where it feels like the possibilities are limitless.”

“JAFF MARKET is essential in connecting industry players with the best local talents in Indonesia. IMAJINARI wants to support JAFF’s initiative to open wider opportunities for local talents while sharing our experience in the Indonesian film industry.”

“It is an incredibly exciting time for Indonesian cinema and its filmmakers, reflected in the growth of the industry and demand for its stories, as showcased by wonderful festivals like JAFF. The JAFF Market brings a focus to this and I’m excited by the opportunities it offers for Indonesia’s filmmakers and those from the broader region, including Australia, to connect and collaborate. AFF is thrilled to partner with the JAFF Market and Mylab to help foster relationships, projects, and expand cultural understanding.”

“With Indonesian films having a record-breaking year, on course to reach 80 million admissions by the end of 2024, now is the optimum time for JAFF, one of Indonesia’s biggest and longest-running festivals, to launch an industry platform. Initiatives like JAFF MARKET enable the international industry to learn more about the companies and talent behind Indonesian films, as well as explore opportunities for co-production and collaboration.”
