But film producers should continue to raise the bar for the next one.

So far, the Dilan series has been well accepted by fans. Why did Dilan join the motorbike gang: is he angry at his father who is often absent from home? Raising the bar Perhaps it will provide answers to questions the audience has about Dilan’s motives. When the film trilogy is completed, we will be able to see how this use of two narrators affects the way the story is told. This will allow the audience to experience the story from both the male and female perspectives. For the last sequel, yet to be released, Dilan will narrate the story.

In the first two novels and their movie adaptations, the audience follows the story through Milea’s perspectives. Both Grease and Dilan portray youths trying to find their identities as they struggle with uncertainties in their world. In Dilan, however, Milea takes a firm stand against Dilan’s friendship with his motorcycle gang friends. At the end of the story, Sandy changes her hair and dress style, more like Danny, showing that she finally embraces his world. The story line reminds me of the Hollywood musical classic Grease about a teen romantic relationship between Sandy (Olivia Newton-John), a schoolgirl, and Danny (John Travolta), a member of motorbike club. It explores love, high school life, solidarity among youth and conflicts between peers and with older generations. The Dilan film series is based on the best-selling trilogy of novels, Dilan, written by Pidi Baiq. In the film, the figures of Dilan’s and Milea’s mothers are busy managing the households and fully support the children while their husbands, both in the army, are often absent.Ī scene where Dilan’s mother tells Milea that police arrested Dilan because he took his father’s gun to a fight subtly describes the reality of the military presence in civil life during the New Order regime. Feminist scholar Julia Suryakusuma called this government’s agenda “ the State Ibuism”. Women’s role under the Soeharto regime was to manage the household, educate the children, making sure that home was safe for young generations to grow to become men with Pancasila values, Indonesia’s state ideology. The same government also encouraged a politically conscious act to define women’s identity in Indonesia as housewives. Millions of people became victims of the New Order regime. These young Indonesians did not experience life under the oppressive Soeharto government. The children born during Indonesia’s period of democratisation are now in their late teens or early twenties, the demographic for the Dilan series teen flick.
A window on Indonesia’s New OrderĪfter more than 30 years, Soeharto’s dictatorship crumbled in 1998. In Dilan, writer Pidi Baiq and director Fajar Bustomi attempt to subtly portray the culture and politics of the New Order era using the genre of romantic teen flicks.
