PENGANTAR PROGRAM

Merah Merah

The Color Red

Agustus pernah menjadi bulan yang menegangkan di Indonesia. Persisnya 72 tahun yang lalu, sebelum kemudian menjadi bulan yang penuh dengan perayaan yang mewujud lewat tradisi lomba, olah raga, pentas seni, dan tentu saja upacara pengibaran bendera merah putih. “Merah adalah berani, putih berarti suci”, demikian makna bendera Indonesia.

Belakangan peristiwa-peristiwa yang muncul mengindikasikan bahwa kita terlalu sibuk dengan kesucian, namun sedikit keberanian untuk bersikap demi kemajuan dan mengakui keberagaman. Hoax dan ekstremisme memangsa kita sebagai bangsa yang gagap di era yang semakin mudah mendapatkan dan menyebarkan sesuatu, apapun itu.

August was once considered as a tense month in Indonesia, it was 72 years ago to be exact before then August took a turn into a month full of celebrations that manifest through unique contests, sports competitions, performing arts, and of course, the flag-raising ceremonies.

The Indonesian national flag holds its own meaning as “red means bold, white means purity”. However, we have been focusing too much on chastity, but take a little courage to welcome progression and recognize diversity.

Hoax and extremism prey on us as a nation in an era that is increasingly easy to obtain information and spread something, no matter what it is.

Beberapa waktu lalu, soal merah putih menjadi berita. Panitia SEA Games dari negara tetangga melakukan kesalahan yang relatif fatal untuk beberapa kalangan. Merah putih salah cetak menjadi putih merah. Disusul tim Indonesia dikerjai oleh wasit di dua cabang olah raga. Ketegangan tersebut menjadi getaran hebat di media sosial. Sampai pada titik ini, arti bangsa sesungguhnya semakin kabur, jika paham atas kebangsaan demikian mudah berubah menjadi kebencian untuk yang kita anggap Liyan. Bagi kami, nasionalisme semacam itu tidaklah keren.

Barangkali juga, seperti kata Geoff Mulgan, “semua nasionalisme bisa kita mengerti sebagai narsisme kolektif” atau mengutip Albert Einstein, “nasionalisme adalah penyakit kekanak-kanakan. Ia adalah campak bagi umat manusia.”

Dalam konteks KDM #21, kami ingin membagi kebahagiaan lewat empat film pendek dari Yogyakarta yang mampu memberikan kita vaksin anti narsis dan anti campak sebagai sebuah bangsa yang merdeka.

Pertama, Bedjo van Deerlak arahan Eddie Cahyono. Film pendek tentang perang

Recently, the matter of red and white started a controversy. The Malaysian SEA Games committee made a relatively fatal mishap for some people. The Indonesian’s red-white flag is misprinted as white-red. At least in two sports competitions, in which the delegations from Indonesia compete, are suspected of being led by a one-sided referee.

Following the incidents, social media has been boisterous. At this point, the meaning of “nation” is increasingly blurred if the notion of nationalism easily turns into hatred for those we considered as “The Other”. Such nationalism is not our cup of tea. Perhaps, as Geoff Mulgan says, “all nationalism can be understood as a kind of collective narcissism” or quoting Albert Einstein, “nationalism is an infantile disease. It is the measles of mankind”.

In the context of KDM #21, we want to share happiness through these four short films from Yogyakarta which can give us anti-narcissistic and anti-measles vaccines as a nation that declared its own freedom. Bedjo Van Deerlak directed by Eddie Cahyono is selected to be the first film. It is a short film about the war of independence with a different point of view.

The film draws drama and action with a touch of comedy set against the backdrop of the war

kemerdekaan dengan sudut pandang yang berbeda. Racikan drama dan aksi dengan sedikit komedi berlatar masa perjuangan kemerdekaan Indonesia kami harap mampu membangun suasana pemutaran yang menggairahkan.

Film kedua, Gara-Gara Bendera, arahan Jeihan Angga mengangkat cerita tentang rasa tanggung jawab. Jeihan menempatkan seorang siswa bengal yang harus memenuhi janjinya untuk mencuci bendera yang sudah dikotorinya agar layak dikibarkan ketika upacara. Dengan gaya filmnya yang jenaka, Jeihan adalah pembuat film yang selalu berhasil membuat penontonnya bahagia.

Film ketiga adalah KTP arahan Bobby Prasetyo. KTP sangat berbeda dengan filmfilm pendek Bobby sebelumnya, baik secara tema maupun gaya. Adapun yang sama adalah kelancarannya dalam mengalirkan cerita. Lagi-lagi, kami memilih komedi untuk anda. Semoga perkara identitas warga lanjut usia yang keyakinannya tidak tersedia dalam kolom agama bisa membuat anda tertawa.

Tidak hanya itu, kami juga berharap wacana bahwa Indonesia itu rupa-rupa―dari bahasa hingga agama―dapat ditangkap oleh anda.

Seragam arahan Dhisga Amandatya dipilih menjadi film penutup KDM #21. Seragam bertutur tentang seorang siswi sekolah dasar yang coba mengakali sebuah aturan sekolah yang kurang masuk akal. Film ini mempersoalkan bagaimana penyeragaman sering membuat seseorang merasa tidak nyaman.

Semoga film-film tersebut menarik minat anda semua untuk memperbincangkannya di sesi diskusi. Saat ini, tampaknya kita membutuhkan lebih banyak keberanian untuk mengisi kemerdekaan, ketimbang kesuciankesucian yang mendorong ke dalam kenaifan dan keseragaman yang membahayakan persatuan dan kesatuan.

Selamat Menonton. Merdeka!

Suluh Pamuji

of independence. We hope this film will be able to construct an exciting atmosphere of the screening.

The second film, Gara-Gara Bendera, is a film by Jeihan Angga that raises an issue regarding a sense of responsibility. Jeihan puts a front a delinquent student who has to take the responsibility for a flag in order to be properly raised during the ceremony. With his witty style, Jeihan is a filmmaker who always succeeds in making audience entertained.

The third film is Bobby Prasetyo’s KTP. KTP relatively has a different theme and style compared to Bobby’s previous works. The only similarity lies in the flow of the story. We choose another comedy for you. Hopefully, the case of a senior citizen whose religion is unknown in the religious column can spark some laugh. We also hope that the discourse on diversity in Indonesia―from language to religion―can also trigger our minds after seeing this film.

Dhisga Amandatya’s Seragam will close the whole screening. Seragam illustrates the struggle of an elementary school girl who tries to outsmart her school rule that makes no sense. The film highlights the question of how uniformity often makes one feels uncomfortable.

Hopefully, those films will trigger you all to create a lively dialogue in the discussion session. Nowadays, it seems that we need more courage to give meaningful contributions to our independence, rather than keeping up with the concept of purity, which pushed us into naivete and uniformity that may harm our unity.

Enjoy the Films. Long Live Freedom!
