FILM Tulang Belulang Tulang, which is the result of the incubation program from Indonesiana Film, will be shown in cinemas on September 26, 2024. This is the first film from the Indonesiana Film program to successfully enter Indonesian cinemas.
The film, directed by Sammaria Simanjuntak, tells the story of a family who carries out one of the traditions in the Batak region, namely Mangokal Holi (moving the bones of ancestors).
On their journey to bring the bones of Tulang Tua (grandfather) to their hometown, they were faced with a problem, namely that the suitcase containing the bones was lost.
While searching for him, they faced so many challenges. On the other hand, the family in the village had made a big event to welcome the bones of Tulang Tua (grandfather).
With hard work and love for Tulang Tua (grandfather), they finally managed to get the bones back and buried them in the village.
This film, which has elements of comedy, is one of the films resulting from collaboration with the Ministry of Education, Culture, Research and Technology through the scenario incubation program from Indonesiana Film.
