Today I was with friends watching movies colossal PR JAVA is very inspiring movie, SOEGIJA.
The film is the story of a Great Father from Semarang city which loaded with the theme of humanity in Indonesia against the invaders to achieve independence.
Although I differ with Soegija beliefs, but I am very proud with him who always be a genuine struggle to help fellow human beings, though they have a different tribes.
Indonesia on the struggle turned out to be very-very dark. In this film the director Garin Nugroho able to raise just how cruel the Japanese occupation army that invaded Indonesia for three years, and the Dutch colonial power long enough to master Indonesia, approximately 345 years old.
