Indonesia's storytellers

Indonesian teams excel at intimate storytelling: conversations in a café, a wordless love story, youth in a 90s small town. All five this week come from just two studios, Toge Productions and Mojiken.

This is a retrospective issue compiled in October 2026; the date marks the week it covers.
