Technological advancements influence cinematographic works, including films protected by copyright. However, this also raises issues of piracy, such as the illegal streaming of Mencuri Raden Saleh. This research examines whether streaming the film through illegal websites can be sanctioned under Law No. 28 of 2014 on Copyright and how the Directorate General of Intellectual Property (DJKI) protects against such practices. The research is descriptive with a normative legal approach, using secondary data and primary data from interviews as supporting sources. Data collection was conducted through literature review and document analysis, while data analysis used a qualitative method with deductive reasoning. The findings conclude that illegal streaming of Mencuri Raden Saleh violates the creator's economic rights under Article 9 paragraph (1) letters a, b, e, and/or g, making it subject to sanctions under Articles 113 paragraphs (3) and (4) of the Copyright Law. DJKI's protection efforts include raising awareness about the Copyright Law and enforcing the removal of pirated content from illegal websites.
