Join the UBC Centre for Southeast Asian Research and the Graduate Education and Training on Southeast Asia Consortium for a special simulcast screening of Hot Stuff.
Hot Stuff is an AIFIS film award-winning documentary and part of a trio of Indonesian films that delve into energy policies in Indonesia, corporate ties to those policies, and their detrimental effects on local environments and populations.
Director Dandhy Laksono and Producer Cypri Dale will join GETSEA live from the University of Michigan’s Center for Southeast Asia Studies as 20 universities from across North America connect via Zoom to watch Hot Stuff simultaneously, followed by a discussion about the film, energy policy in Indonesia, and the new Prabowo Subianto administration’s response to local grassroots movements in the country.
Watch the trailer (with English subtitles) to catch a glimpse of the documentary:
