Tuesday, January 5, 2016
About a Woman is the last in a trilogy on character transformation by director Teddy Soeriaatmadja. The Lovely Man, his first film, tells the struggle of an Acehnese woman who wears a veil to find her father, who turns out to be a transvestite in Jakarta. His second film Something in the Way recounts a taxi driver's obsession with a neighbor who happens to be a commercial sex worker. Teddy rounds off his trilogy about intimate matters with the dramatic About a Woman.
In the course of the trilogy, we can also observe the maturing of his directing skills. Teddy now appears more at ease in the simple drama About a Woman. Directors in general have different foci and approaches. Some are centered on the scenario's structure, while the artistic value is obtained through the narrative and the dialog's rhythm. Others depend on their actors to convey the emotions within the storyline. While yet others prioritize the beauty of their visual images and give a strong emphasis to their camera work to create captivating visual renderings.
