Mama

1972

A slow, serious drama that braids separate lives together, asking patience as it drifts between stories and moods.

Directed by
Wim Umboh
Genres
Drama
Overview
Legendary directors Wim Umboh and Sjumandjaja, decided to experiment by producing a script being written at the same time of the shooting. Mama is a complex story with two seemingly unrelated narrative threads. The first story revolves around Sanca and Anani. The second is about Ulli and Pandji, and in between the two stories is a third narrative, about Ulla, a religious prostitute and Ulli’s sister, and Suwaka.
