Streamlined Guides: Updates To Indonesia Market
One of Asia’s most vibrant content markets, Indonesia continued to see strong theatrical recovery in 2025 and early 2026, mostly driven by local features, along with a streaming sector that is growing in terms of both paid subscriptions and viewing hours.
But it’s also a market that suffers from multiple infrastructure issues that could hamper further growth – something the local industry is painfully aware of and actively trying to fix. At the same time, Indonesian cinema continues to have a high profile on the international film festival circuit with Wregas Bhanuteja’s Levitating recently premiering at Sundance Film Festival and Edwin’s Sleep No More and Joko Anwar's Ghost In The Cell in Berlin.
This edition of the Streamlined Guides provides updates to the three reports on Indonesia we published in late 2024 (see links below) – looking at box office and streaming in 2025 and early 2026, along with updates on companies, projects and film festivals, at a crucial time for the Indonesian industry as it gears up for the key Lebaran (Eid al-Fitr) box office period with six films scheduled for release. As always, this guide has been researched independently of any financial support from advertisers and/or film agencies.
