The Indonesian Film Board (Indonesian: Badan Perfilman Indonesia; BPI) is an independent private institution responsible for cultivating a strong, competitive, and culturally impactful film industry in Indonesia.[1] It also serves as a platform for film organizations and professional associations across the country.[2] Its primary duties and functions include organizing domestic film festivals, representing Indonesian cinema at international festivals, promoting Indonesia as a prime shooting location for foreign film productions to stimulate local film-related businesses, advising on industry development, recognizing film achievements, and facilitating funding for exceptional films which contribute to the national film culture.[3][4][5] The board is officially recognized by the president of Indonesia.[4]
The board was formed under Law No.33/2009 on Cinema.[3][5] According to Article 67 of said law, the public has a role to play in film organization, and to strengthen this participation, the Indonesian Film Board was thus formed (as per Article 68).[3][1][5] Although mandated by the Cinema Law in 2009, the Indonesian Film Board was only officially established five years later on January 17, 2014, during the closing session of the two-day General Assembly on its establishment, which took place from January 15 to 17, 2014, in Jakarta.[2]
