Muhammad collects beautiful material (to which justice is done thanks to the use of two adjacent images), but only appears to show an indirect interest in the film-to-be. The shots are set in the time when Indonesians were first able to elect a president directly, and it is the politics of today's Indonesia that really gets people talking.

The result is a clever, striking and entertaining political documentary. Tokyo Magic Hour is as different from The Year of Living Vicariously as day and night. She wouldnt yield to her mother but she yielded to love. In this poetic and experimental film, the love story about two men in Tokyo is told through spoken verse and poems. But her mother still cooked for her and waited for her at home.Īfter losing a mothers love, she put all her hope in love.

When she ran back to her mothers side, what awaited her was just the cold body and her dead mother. The images - digital and manipulated poems - can vie with the texts.
