| Riassunto: | This section is a follow up to the one published in Archipel 98. It contains four short essays on recent films (2009‒2019) dealing with the events of 1965-1966 and their consequences. The Women and the Generals: Unraveling a Myth of Sexual Perversion by Saskia Wieringa focuses on the lies surrounding the involvement of the Gerwani (Indonesian women’s movement) in the murder of the generals. Pulau Buru: Still Much More to Reveal by Vannessa Hearman follows a former prisoner returning to the penal island of Buru with his family, Forty Years of Silence: the Insanity of Society by Soe Tjen Marching shows the impact of the events on the mental health of the victims and their family, while A Daughter’s Memory: 1965 in Animation by Grace Leksana presents the personal memories of Njoto’s daughter, one of the leaders of the Communist Party at that time. |
