Anak Perawan di Sarang Penyamun (Usmar Ismail, Indonesia, 1962, 127 minutes, 18+)

Program 1

Filem ini berangkat dari adaptasi novel dengan judul yang sama karya Sutan Takdir Alisjahbana pada tahun 1932. Kemampuan adaptasi sutradara membawa filem ini menjadi mandiri secara sastrawi dari pengaruh teksnya, sehingga membawa konteks berbeda dari spasialitas waktu produksi yang melingkupinya. Filem ini dipenuhi oleh image lanskap hutan sebagai ruang liminalitas dari pergulatan dua ‘moralitas’ yang berbeda dari dua figur: Medasing sebagai pemimpin gerombolan perampok, dan Sayu, seorang gadis perawan sebagai tawanan sanderanya. Figur Sayu yang berada di tengah hutan dan para perampok membawa kontras tesendiri, namun ia bisa menjadi katalisator ketika mengandaikan kehadiran yang ‘liyan’ (Medasing).

This film departs from a novel adaptation of the same title by Sutan Takdir Alisjahbana in 1932. The ability of director’s adaptation brings this film to become literally independent from its textual influences, thus it brings a different context from the spatiality of the surrounding production time. The film is filled with the image of forest landscape as a liminality space from the two different struggles of ‘morality’ of the two figures: Medasing as the leader of robbers, and Sayu, a virgin girl as his hostage. The figure of Sayu in the middle of forest and the robbers bring a contrast of its own, but it can be a catalyst when it presupposes the presence of the other (Medasing).
