Jakarta, CNBC Indonesia – The President of the Indonesian Film Entrepreneurs Association (GPBSI), Djonny Syafruddin, appreciated the decision of the Governor of DKI Jakarta, Anies Baswedan, to allow the cinemas to operate again. It has been almost 8 months since the cinema has not worked due to large-scale social restrictions (PSBB).
However, there is a note that according to him must be loaned by the provincial government of DKI Jakarta, that is, regarding the capacity of spectators with the number allowed only at 25% of capacity.
With this capacity, he doubted that the film industry would enter to participate in the first days of opening cinemas. The reason is that it is necessary to have a careful calculation in terms of the cost of capital and the potential to be reaped from showing films in theaters.
“If 25% logically this is the problem. If you have a movie. (The plan) yesterday was only to think about 50% of the capacity. Not ourselves. There are 100 national films that have not been shown. When he wants to show in theaters. He thinks 50%. Wow, what do you do, you can’t force it. He did the calculations, the calculations. And much less 25%, “Djonny told CNBC Indonesia, Monday (10/12).
Hundreds of national films have not been shown because the film operations have not been running for the last 8 months. Both filmmakers and actors should refrain from delaying the premiere of the screening of their films. However, when the signal came for cinemas to reopen, sadly many actors in the film industry were hesitant to participate again. This also raises more or less doubts to the owners of cinemas.
“If the word is agreed, go ahead. We need a movie, we ask the producers. If they don’t want to. It’s an assumption. Because the owners of national and imported films are our backbone. If not, what do we want to do? What do we want to play? ” he said.
If then there is a loss because the money that comes in is not worth the cost of making the film, then the one who will pay for it is, of course, the film industry itself. Likewise, cinemas must bear operating costs.
“When a film enters the cinema it falls completely. Sold to other media. It is impossible to re-enter the rotating cinema. That is a risk. There is a filming system that is paid directly at the beginning, but generally with profit sharing From the results of the income from the 10% tax, the remaining half is half. Half. Cinema for electrical operations, etc. “, Djonny explained.
