Both definitions refer to the legal term, and both are related to criminal acts. But, for Akbar Yumni, jury and curator for ARKIPEL bromocorah 7th – Jakarta International Documentary and Experimental Film Festival, bromocorah is present in the figure of Ustadz Ibrahim in Titian Serambut Dibelah Tujuh (The Holy Bridge) by Chaerul Umam (1982), presented in curatorial program Image and Dissensus, Sunday, August 25, 2019 at GoetheHaus Jakarta.

The gap of understanding regarding the material products of modernism coming from the West – in this case, is a camera – is not necessarily a limitation we should mourn. Instead, that gap is a chance for other interpretations when intersecting with a certain kind of culture.

Here, technology no longer plays a role as a mere recording device, but also a subject with a political role to comprehend the broader system.
