Wiji Thukul: From Solo to Locarno
Directed by Yosep Anggi Noen, Istirahatlah Kata-Kata captures the last days of Wiji as a fugitive until he was disappeared. The movie attempts to present his emotions and psychological condition, rather than the chronological events of his life. The visuals, dialogue and the characters tell a story of fear and loneliness, courage and madness, love and longing. So what? Do we need that kind of story? Does it help to bring up the issue of Wiji’s disappearance? Will it help us get him back? Will it be just another campaign project – to be shouted for a while and then forgotten?
