Abstract

While most studies on the bancakan ritual focus on social solidarity and cultural preservation, the film Sego Berkat presents this tradition with complex mystical nuances. This article aims to explain the mystification of bancakan in Sego Berkat using Roland Barthes’ structural semiotics. Employing a descriptive qualitative method, this study analyzes visual and narrative symbols to uncover ideological mystification and cultural messages. The analysis utilizes drama theory to examine narrative sequences across three levels of meaning: denotation, connotation, and myth. The results indicate that Sego Berkat portrays bancakan not merely as a social tradition but as an effort to construct a spiritual myth. At the denotative level, bancakan is communal dining. Connotatively, it signifies togetherness, gratitude, and spiritual pleas for blessings and solidarity. At the level of myth, it becomes an ideological narrative emphasizing the necessity of maintaining social and spiritual harmony through sharing to ensure safety. Thus, bancakan transcends ordinary food consumption, serving as a reflection of Javanese spiritual values and cosmology. These findings confirm that the film encourages the audience to reinterpret tradition through the perspective of cultural mystification.
