Last Second, The (Detik Terakhir)

Directed By: Nanang Istiabudi,
SCR: Albertine Endah & Twen Tyaval, Indonesia, 2005, 35mm, subtitled, 110 min.


Indonesia’s first-ever lesbian feature, THE LAST SECOND is a twisted, colorful story about a beautiful teenage girl searching for love. An only child, Regi lives in Jakarta with her materially wealthy but emotionally impoverished parents. Deeply disturbed by her parents’ violent arguments, Regi escapes into an underground club scene awash with drugs, sex and great dance music. There she meets Rajib, who becomes like a brother, and Vela, with whom she falls madly in love. Her world begins to swirl out of control as she and Vela get deeper into a drug habit they can’t pay for. Moving between past and present, this fast-paced, highly dramatic film is a wild ride through the racing heart and mind of a bewildered young woman. - KS
