This book presents a historical overview of the Indonesian film
industry, the relationship between censorship and representation,
and the rise of Islamic popular culture. It considers scholarship
on gender in Indonesian cinema through the lens of power relations.
With key themes such as nationalism, women's rights, polygamy, and
terrorism which have preoccupied local filmmakers for decades,
Indonesia cinema resonates with the socio-political changes and
upheavals in Indonesia's modern history and projects images of the
nation through the debates on gender and Islam. The text also sheds
light on broader debates and questions about contemporary Islam and
gender construction in contemporary Indonesia. Offering cutting
edge accounts of the production of Islamic cinema, this new book
considers gendered dimensions of Islamic media creation which
further enrich the representations of the 'religious' and the
'Islamic' in the everyday lives of Muslims in South East Asia.
