For the research of this episode about Indonesian revolutionary culture in 1946, I mostly turned to the diaries and writings of those who were there. Reading the untouched experiences was so absorbing and allowed for writing a bottom-up narrative. Something that didn’t make it into the video was the work of Chairil Anwar, a poet who died young a few years after the War of Independence. Dwelling about the life and death of the individual during the revolution, his poetry defied Indonesia’s antagonists. In his poem “Notes for 1946”, he writes of how it felt to be among the young generation of Indonesia: “We – running dogs, hunting hounds – we get to see only a moment of this drama we play in.” I’d definitely recommend reading his work if you’re interested!
Cheers, Izzy.
