Tarakan. Renowned actor and director Reza Rahadian returns to greet Indonesian audiences with his latest work entitled “Pangku” , which is scheduled to be released in cinemas starting November 6, 2025. This film is a special debut in the line of moving social drama films, bringing up a story that is very close to everyday reality: the struggle of women, especially mothers, in facing the harshness of life and limited choices.
Through “Pangku ,” Reza not only takes the director’s chair but also offers a profound and touching perspective on the role of mothers in society. He depicts how many women must navigate life amid oppressive, restrictive circumstances that often leave no room for wrong choices.
The film was produced by the production house Gambar Gerak, founded by Reza Rahadian and Arya Ibrahim. The two aimed to present a film that was not only artistically powerful but also socially relevant and amplified voices rarely heard on the big screen.
The cast of actors adds to the strength of this film. Big and young names such as Claresta Taufan, Christine Hakim, Fedi Nuril, Devano Danendra, Shakeel Fauzi, Putri Risa Juan, Dea Chandika, Kaan Latihan, Nazira C. Noer, Galabby, TJ Ruthi Lukisan Sardi, and Nai Djenar Masa Ayu joined the project. They bring characters that represent the various faces of Indonesian women with diverse backgrounds and life dynamics.
” Pangku” is predicted to be one of the most anticipated films of the year, not only because of the big names behind the screen, but also because of its boldness in touching on relevant and touching social themes. The film is expected to be not only entertaining, but also a space for reflection for audiences about the roles of women, mothers, and the often challenging life choices.
