The Story
A punk Daydream | | Lamunan Oi! (Indonesian Title)
During an expedition through South East Asia, director Jimmy Hendrickx met three street punks on a microlet bus in Jakarta. They told him stories about the punk scene in Indonesia. Eka was abuducted as a kid, and forced to beg for money. After a daring escape, he ended up at the Kota train station where he met his friends Edo and Kempot. Together they joined the punk movement, for survival.

Jimmy approached his friend Kristian Van der Heyden to produce the film and pursue the punks’ narrative further. Gradually, both filmmakers immersed themselves in the Indonesian punk scene.
From personal interviews to powerful landscapes, the film is a poetic journey through the Indonesian punk culture and the macro-environmental factors that inform it, on a social, political and evironmental scale.
With initial financial support from the Flemish Audiovisual Fund to make a short film, we received an extension to finish production and turn three years of work into a feature film project. Now we are looking for some extra support to finish post-production, so that we can share the inner voice of the indonesian punk with the world.

With music as an instrument to speak up against opression, the punk community is growing strong, revealing their struggle for survival. The universal theme is about voicing our rights for equality and democracy, against greed and curruption that is flooding the world.

Our Mission with LAMUNAN Oi!
We are pleased to say that the production of LAMUNAN is about 70% complete. Our endeavor to make this project has been funded with our own personal funds and with the help of the Flemish Audiovisual Fund, thus far. What we are seeking from the Seed and Spark community are supplementary funds to take this project from production to completion. With your help, we believe that we can produce an artistic documentary film that could have a positive global impact beyond aesthetics.
