This study aims to analyze the types and functions of moral values in the film Jendela Seribu Sungai directed by Jay Sukmo. Films, as audiovisual literary works, not only provide entertainment but also convey moral messages that contribute to character building and social awareness. However, previous studies have generally focused on identifying moral values without examining their functions in conveying educational and social messages. Therefore, this study offers a more comprehensive analysis by examining both the types and functions of moral values presented in the film. This research employed a qualitative approach with a descriptive method. The data consisted of dialogues, scenes, and characters’ actions containing moral values, collected through non-participant observation and documentation. Data were analyzed using the interactive model of Miles, Huberman, and Saldaña, including data reduction, data display, and conclusion drawing. The findings revealed 26 moral value data, comprising 10 individual moral values, 10 social moral values, and 6 religious moral values. In addition, 26 data on moral value functions were identified, including 10 educational functions, 10 social control functions, and 6 reflective functions. The novelty of this study lies in its integrated analysis of both the types and functions of moral values, demonstrating that Jendela Seribu Sungai serves not only as entertainment but also as an effective medium for character education, social awareness, and moral reflection.
