INDONESIA INDONESIA - KITES KITES KITES AND<br />

AND<br />

MONSTERS<br />

MONSTERS<br />

By Robert Lemelson<br />

The film focuses on a growing boy, Wayan<br />

Yoga, and is not so much about illness as<br />

it is an exploration of the protective<br />

aspects of culture that may guide<br />

developmental neuropsychiatric<br />

processes. At six years old, Wayan Yoga<br />

is an energetic boy who flies kites and is<br />

obsessed with the monsters of Balinese<br />

mythology. He also has various tics, which<br />

move his parents to seek treatment. At<br />

twenty, he is a young man planning his<br />

career as a chef and an expressive<br />

Balinese dancer. Ultimately, Wayan Yoga's<br />

tics are insignificant to his evolving sense<br />

of self-<strong>com</strong>pared to the saturation of<br />

symbols, images, and narratives of his<br />

culture. While Wayan must learn to<br />

negotiate the kinds of movements,<br />

interests, and goals that are culturally<br />

appropriate, the protective buffer of his<br />

family guides him successfully into<br />

normative Balinese adulthood.<br />

INDONESIA INDONESIA - MEMORY MEMORY OF OF<br />

OF<br />

MY MY FACE<br />

FACE<br />

By Robert Lemelson<br />

The film focuses on Bambang Rudjito, a<br />

university-educated Indonesian man in his<br />

late thirties diagnosed with schizoaffective<br />

disorder. It explores the "globalized"<br />

features of Bambang's illness and<br />

recovery narrative — western psychiatric<br />

diagnostics and pharmaceuticals, work<br />

opportunities in a rapidly changing urban<br />

environment, participation in an interfaith<br />

religious <strong>com</strong>munity, and his family's<br />

understanding and acceptance of what<br />

Bambang describes as a "mental<br />

disability." But it also considers aspects of<br />

Bambang's more <strong>com</strong>plex, historically and<br />

politically shaded narrative, giving<br />

language and a deeper substance to his<br />

illness experience. Memory of My Face<br />

illustrates how the residues of colonialism<br />

and the pervasive influence of<br />

globalization affect the subjective<br />

experience of mental illness.<br />

INDONESIA INDONESIA - RITUAL<br />

RITUAL<br />

BURDENS<br />

BURDENS<br />

By Robert Lemelson<br />

The film focuses on Ni Ketut Kasih who<br />

has lived her whole life surrounded by the<br />

<strong>com</strong>plex rhythms of the Balinese ritual<br />

calendar. Here, participation in ritual<br />

events is both a spiritual mandate and<br />

social obligation for women who spend<br />

countless hours crafting offerings. Ni<br />

Ketut's masterful hand has contributed to<br />

her status as a highly respected<br />

ceremonial leader. However, the<br />

pressures of ritual requirements often<br />

overwhelm her, crowding her mind with<br />

memories of her difficult childhood during<br />

Indonesia's war for independence. This<br />

may trigger Ketut's bi-polar disorder<br />

episodes, for which she has been<br />

hospitalized over 35 times. Ni Ketut's case<br />

reveals the binding associations that may<br />

make certain burdens unbearable as<br />

cultural obligations, traumatic historical<br />

events, and personal experience overlap<br />

in unique schemas of stress that trigger<br />

cyclical episodes of mental illness.<br />
