Netflix recently announced a slate of new Indonesian titles to be released on the streaming platform throughout the rest of 2022 and 2023. The move "comes at the right time", according to veteran Indonesian filmmaker Shanty Harmayn, as regional and global interest in content from Southeast Asia continues to grow. The seven productions will span genres from comedy to sci-fi.
Netflix has unveiled a lineup of seven original films and series from Indonesia as it looks to expand its positioning in Southeast Asia, with Malobika Banerji, director of content for the region, touting the streamer's efforts to support and foster the local creative economy.
