Title: Fissures in the Facade: A Semiotic and Narrative Analysis of the Cinematic Work ‘Kalabit’ in the Context of Indonesian Post-New Order Cinema

Abstract

This paper provides a comprehensive academic analysis of the film Kalabit (2002), directed by Helfi Kardit, within the framework of Indonesian cinema history. While often remembered as a product of the burgeoning "teen horror" or "erotic thriller" genres of the early 2000s, this paper argues that Kalabit serves as a significant cultural text reflecting the anxieties of the Post-New Order era (Reformasi). Through an examination of narrative structure, character archetypes, and the semiotics of fear, this study explores how the film utilizes the supernatural and the erotic to navigate themes of modernity, religious morality, and the unresolved traumas of the past. The analysis also touches upon the role of subtitling in the diasporic reception of Indonesian genre cinema.
