Sinematek Indonesia, Film archive in Jakarta, Indonesia

The collection at Sinematek Indonesia contains over 2,700 films, 15,000 reference materials, newspaper clippings, screenplays, and vintage film equipment.

Established in 1975 by Misbach Yusa Biran and Asrul Sani, Sinematek Indonesia became the first film archive in Southeast Asia, operating from its Jakarta location since 1977.

The institution maintains extensive documentation of Indonesian cinema from the Dutch colonial period through modern productions, reflecting social changes and artistic developments.

Located on the fourth and fifth floors of the Hajji Usmar Ismail Center in South Jakarta, visitors can access the archives through both a 150-seat screening room and 500-seat theater.

The archive holds numerous Indonesian films at risk of disappearing, including rare black-and-white productions and early color motion pictures from the region.
