Abstract

The RUMAH TAK RAMAH (Unfriendly Home) film was created by MAP young researchers, based on the social problem analysis conducted by MAP youth participants of East Jakarta. The script development incorporated findings from a quick survey with community members regarding their knowledge and perception on sexual violence, and short interviews with adolescent girls, who are survivors of sexual violence. The young researchers represent three CSOs as MAP Indonesia partners Bandungwangi Foundation, Wahana Visi Indonesia and Children’s Forum of Cipinang Besar Utara. They consulted Kalamtara, MAP partner filmmakers, from writing down a synopsis, to the cast rehearsal, filming and editing. In particular, the technicalities of filming were also assisted by young people of Jakaringan Cinema, a film-based advocacy youth group based in East Jakarta.
