Through audiovisual media, Dian Herdiany is inviting Indonesian youth to understand the potentials and problems of the areas where they live. Film as a tool for documentation is being used to give voice to adolescent issues to raise awareness among peers, parents, and local governments.
“When I invited teenagers to make films for the first time in 2006, I saw that film was successful in showing how youth perceive diversity. In my opinion, this was really cool because they dared to speak up," Dian said on Monday (4/1/2021) at the Kampung Halaman Foundation office, Sleman regency, Yogyakarta.
