The Moon Thieves
盜月者
Vincent may be an expert watch forger, but he doesn’t have the disposition of a criminal. So when an underworld boss strongarms him into joining a watch heist in Tokyo, he’s caught way out of his league. But the temptation of getting his hands on the holy grail of rare timepieces keeps him going even if it means he’s locked in the crosshairs of gangsters and yakuza. A rollicking fun caper of safecrackers, Cantopop stars, and double-dealers going for the gold while the clock goes tick, tick…

Falling in Love Like in Movies
Jatuh Cinta Seperti Di Film-Film
Bagus knows he is destined to be more than a screenwriting hack, churning out film adaptations of bad soap operas. He’s given the chance to write something original – a truly unique romance film – only he needs some cues from real life. Enter Hana, his old high school flame, the one who got away. As his rekindled interactions with her find their way into his script, is he still a hack, copying lines from real life? And worse yet: is he not the lover in real-life that he is in his imagination? A clever meta-rom-com and one of the most acclaimed Indonesian films of 2023.
