It focuses on three main aspects: (1) how animated films portray Boso Suroboyoan, (2) how visual elements in animation reflect cultural values, and (3) how animated films serve as an effective tool for preserving the local language and culture of Boso Suroboyoan. A case study approach was applied, examining animated films that feature Boso Suroboyoan as the primary language and emphasize Surabaya's cultural content. Data collection and analysis were conducted through content analysis, interviews, and public opinion surveys. The findings indicate that animated films using Boso Suroboyoan effectively convey cultural messages in an engaging and educational way.
