Budi Pekerti

What's interesting about Budi Pekerti is that it takes the most relevant elements in social media life today: virality, cancel culture, and popularity. In his latest feature film after Photocopier (2021), Wregas Bhanuteja presents characters full of ethical and personality complexity which have to face the nightmare of their actions because of social media which causes the boundaries of morality to become blurred. Wregas is an expert in exploring human emotions and how a person's choices will have consequences, especially those that happen to Mrs. Prani (played extraordinary by Sha Ine Febriyanti) so this film feels very close to us. What Wregas did was so precise and effective that Budi Pekerti deserves to be one of the best Indonesian films in 2023.

This movie will open your eyes to the social issues that are currently happening in Indonesia and the world from media and netizen framing, the logic of profit, lust/desire for viral, and hoaxes, what I can underline from the movie is an "explosion of opinion rather than a search for truth" which has become a new culture everywhere, It's hard to state the truth even if it's true. This movie does a really good job of showing what Indonesians and the rest of society have become. The movie will make you shed tears, laugh, and be touched. Great job for everyone the director, cast, and everyone who works on this film. Something new and fresh in Indonesian cinema. Best of luck Andragogy Budi Pekerti!

This film tells the reality that is happening now, namely the era of social media where a lot of hoax news is being spread and many people believe this news. The storyline of this film is very easy to understand and the acting of the actors is also very good. And it turned out that when the scene was about to move house, it turned out that it wasn't raining on the shooting location and the production team added a very realistic rain effect. I give my appreciation to the editing team. In my opinion, what is missing from this film is that it doesn't exist. I recommend this film to be watched for all ages.

A film that can be considered an educational film but also has a plot and morals that cannot be judged that quickly.

The film is set in Jogjakarta during the pandemic, the storyline is interesting and not boring, even this film is not classified as an action category film but the audience can feel the tension.

A film that is more than just a national level film is even more worthy of being said to be an international class film, interesting visuals do not make the audience bored and sleepy.

Maybe this will be the best Indonesian film released in 2023, in my opinion.

9/10 rating which is very suitable and fitting.

This movie is the best movie in this year, it can show you that social media sometimes can be a bad place for us. It can be a harmful place if we don't use it wisely. Like in the story here Ms. Prani a conselor teacher who is being the victim of scoial media. She did nothing wrong and she accused of speaking rude to a putu seller. And now Ms. Prani and her family needs to face and find the way out from the trouble that influencers have made. They have to stay strong. From this movie we learn to not supposed to believe something that viral without searching for the prove first. And also we have to stay strong for facing the world.
