Abstract

Socioeconomic inequality extends beyond income disparities to include constrained employmentchoices, discriminatory treatment, and unequal access to essential services. This study examineshow socioeconomic inequality is represented in Pangku and explains its relevance to Targets10.2 and 10.3 of Sustainable Development Goal (SDG) 10. It employed an interpretivequalitative approach and media text analysis informed by Stuart Hall’s constructionist theory ofrepresentation. Primary data were collected through repeated viewings and systematicdocumentation of the entire film. Two key scene sequences were selected based on their depictionof constrained opportunities, unequal treatment, and the strength of their narrative andaudiovisual elements. The data were analyzed through data condensation, data display, andconclusion drawing and verification. The findings show that Sartika’s occupational transitionrepresents the constrained employment choices available to economically disadvantaged womenand the commodification of the female body. Meanwhile, the rejection of Bayu’s schoolenrollment represents administrative exclusion that restricts equal access to education. Together,these sequences construct inequality as a multilayered process operating through gender,employment, family status, administrative requirements, and education, with consequences thatmay persist across generations. SDG 10 is used as a contemporary interpretive framework for afilm set during Indonesia’s 1998 economic crisis rather than as a direct measure of policyachievement. This study contributes to research on film representation by linking the experiencesof vulnerable groups to the principles of inclusion and equal opportunity.
