“The Pioneer of Indonesian Musical Cinema”

A radiant gem from the golden age of Indonesian cinema. Tiga Dara enchants with its playful rhythm and heartfelt melodies — a musical so full of life that even its black-and-white frames feel vividly colorful.

Usmar Ismail crafts a story that dances between tradition and modernity, laughter and longing.

A true revolution in style and spirit.
