Indonesian feature film in running for award in Rotterdam

Jakarta, VOI News - The experimental film “At the Very Bottom of Everything” by Indonesian independent filmmaker Paul Agusta is currently in the running for the prestigious Dioraphte Award at the 39th International Film Festival Rotterdam (IFFR), which will end on Feb. 7. At the Very Bottom of Everything, or Di Dasar Segalanya, partially funded by the Hubert Bals Fund of the Netherlands, tells the story of a young woman’s struggle with Bipolar Disorder.  The film, which was entirely developed and shot in Indonesia, provides an intimate look into the often life threatening illness and  the damage it does through highly 
experimental live action and stop motion animation sequences designed to take the audience on a surreal trip into a troubled mind.  According to Paul Agusta, “At the Very Bottom of Everything” is a reflection of one of the most pressing socio-cultural and medical concerns currently emerging within Indonesian society. 
 
Bipolar Disorder, also known as Manic Depression, currently affects 1.5% of the Indonesian populace, or nearly 3 million people; half of the total of 6 million people diagnosed with Bipolar Disorder in Southeast Asia, jp
