It’s better to come early, because tickets are very limited, and only available about 30 minutes before the show time.
Q: How is the curation of the selection of films to be screened?
A : Most of the curation is done from home because cinemas are affected by the pandemic, and this year they prefer an entertaining theme, so that the positive vibes can be felt by the audience in Indonesia.

Q: This time the partnership is with the Vidio platform, why?
A: As a medium so that viewers have the choice to also watch online and can reach more. Vidio is also one of the right platforms for Korea, Vidio has succeeded in succeeding in many sporting events and has also partnered with tvN Movies which provides a lot of Korean content.
The cool thing is that there are Korean films that are hard to find, but they appear on Vidio.
Q: Why is this year’s KIFF only held in Jakarta and Bandung?
A : This is all based on monitoring that started about 7 months ago, vaccinations that have taken place in Jakarta and Bandung have started and until now Jakarta has reached approximately 70%. So of course herd immunity its better than other cities.
In addition to the ability to vaccinate in Bandung, it turns out that if you look at the conditions around urban areas, if you look closely, Bandung is the safest.
