Yuni
Directed by Kamila Andini
Yuni is a teenage girl — smart with big dreams of attending university. When two men she barely knows ask to marry her, she rejects their proposals, sparking gossip about a myth that a woman who rejects three proposals will never marry. The pressure is building when a third man asks for her hand, and Yuni must choose between the myth of a final chance at marriage, or her dream of future happiness.

"Kamila Andini continues her impressive run of social dramas with a thought- provoking portrait of a teenage girl facing the prospect of arranged marriage. A compassionate and engaging coming-of-age tale.” VARIETY
“Kamila Andini brings a light, lyrical touch to some hefty issues in Yuni. The tale of a teenage girl at the mercy of society’s expectations and deep-rooted superstitions feels both specific and universal in its concerns, and audiences will readily identify with a central character facing age-old dilemmas in a modern context.” SCREEN -
