Abstract

Sleep Call (2023), a psychological thriller directed and written by Fajar Nugros, has garnered attention for its captivating narrative and exploration of contemporary societal issues. The film skillfully intertwines a gripping narrative with a profound examination of contemporary issues, offering compelling commentary on the complexities of human relationships, the evolving nature of human interaction in the digital age, and the societal implications of technological advancements. Additionally, the film's portrayal of hyperrealism, class differences, and the impact of capitalism on mental health provides a thought-provoking reflection on the challenges faced by individuals in navigating a rapidly changing society. Furthermore, while the film's focus on gender dynamics and mental health is commendable, its portrayal of these issues could be more balanced. There seems to be a tendency to stereotype female characters as victims or perpetrators of mental illness, which may perpetuate harmful stereotypes rather than challenge them. A more nuanced approach that explores the complexities of these issues beyond gender binaries would add depth to the film's thematic exploration.

Abstract

Bilateral relationship between Indonesia and China which is a pivotal pathway to Global Maritime Axis’s foreign policy has been relentlessly addressed by President Joko Widodo since his early administration in 2014. However, Indonesia is aware that China’s claim of nine-dashed line (9DL) has overlapped with Indonesia’s sovereignty area, Natuna water. This territory dispute has pushed Indonesian government to take a decisive action by sending a verbal note protest to the Chinese embassy in Indonesia. In the perspective of international communication, this action has scrutinized the interdependence between media systems and political systems as a form of a symbiosis connecting and creating perceptions on the issue. Propaganda techniques of mass media, such as inter alia, name-calling, glittering generality, transfer, plain folks, testimonial, selection, bandwagon, and frustration of scapegoat, might create certain perceptions. This study maps the propaganda techniques by Indonesian high-circulated newspaper Kompas and China’s state-run media Xinhua news agency. This study applies quantitative content analysis method in the period of May 30 to July 30, 2016.
