Over the past decade, Indonesian cinema has flourished, delivering some of the most compelling films from Southeast Asia. The industry has also seen immense success as more local films are being made and have even dominated the theaters. The Indonesian film industry records ticket sales over gross for reports and in 2024, over 80 million tickets were sold for Indonesian movies, which is the highest recorded figure so far. While international audiences may identify Indonesian movies with action fare like The Raid, the industry's success has been boosted by the success of local horror films. Nevertheless, it doesn't close the opportunity for exciting films from other genres to be released in cinemas.
