Antes, agora e depois

Arresting portrayal of Sundanese woman and her midlife crisis during 60s. Kamila Andini carefully photographed every moments though never ceased to intrigue audience. Salma & Basuki gave nuanced performances to underline difficult choices and cultural hurdles.

An Indonesian examination of female independence. A powerful lead performance. The masterful mise-en-scène evoked some emotions, yes, but there is some disconnect with the characters. The surreal environment prevents real connection with the story. I finished this film more frustrated and vexed than before, and that would be the opposite of entertaining in my book.

So she's back with her original husband? Or is she? I am not a fan of surreal films where you never know what is a dream and what is reality. Kudos for the cinematography and atmospheric soundtrack. Unfortunately, that was nowhere near enough to make this viewing experience likeable.

Lush set, empty plot.

Before, Now, and Then is a rare gem in Indonesian cinema, an understated yet emotionally rich masterpiece that lingers long after the credits roll. Every frame breathes with authenticity, every moment feels deliberate, and the storytelling balances subtlety with depth. It's a film that understands silence can speak louder than words, and that beauty lies in restraint. Criminally underrated, how this received lower reviews than cringe and shallow Ika Natassa adaptations or the hollow NKCTHI universe is beyond comprehension.

No wonder Laura Basuki won best supporting performance in Berlinale Int' Film Fest, she's so amazing. The movie was good I think Kamila Andini is so brave to make this movie and of course you guys need to watch YUNI, that's her best movie.

Good artistic.....

one of the most serious jobs, starting from research and small elements in artistic or property, displaying combinations of colors and shapes, colors that are appropriate and modern in their time

and also work that during the production process is fun. Everything is done together.

And the favorite is also for sounds that really enter the ears and mind too, everything makes a good combination

Don't miss all the visual and audio scenes in this film!!!

It's no surprise that this film appears everywhere, internationally because it is a quality, acting film.

To get many nominations on the international stage.
