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 />

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 />
