Screening Religion: Mata tertutup (The Blindfold) by Garin Nugroho14 August 2019 | 7 p.m.
venue: Bibliotheca Albertina,
Vortragssaal (Beethovenstraße 6)
The film is built around three loosely interwoven stories of young people who fall prey to a banned extremist Islamic sect called Negara Islam Indonesia (NII). The stories attempt to come at the phenomenon from different perspectives of wealth, age and gender, showing that this is a problem that crosses all these primary social distinctions, and hence has a salience for all major social groups.
Introduction: Leona Pröpper (Watch Indonesia!) & Saskia Schäfer |
