Idak-Idak-Idak
Synopsis
Idak-Idak-Idak (2025) is a hybrid-documentary exploring Indonesia’s partially restituted Lombok Treasures through the eyes of its stolen gemstones. Using full-spectrum cinematography to reveal invisible wavelengths and colours, the film is driven by the intertwined narratives of three generations of Indonesian women rooted in Lombok; A daughter, her Mother, and her Grandmother. Through their experiences between Indonesia and The Netherlands, the film witnesses the impact of colonialism, displacement, integration and healing by asking, “Where can these treasures go now when there’s no home to go back to?”
This film is a part of Beyond Provenance, a transnational initiative that explores how film and collaboration can reassess narratives around restitution of Indonesian cultural objects by the government of the Netherlands.
The film screening will be followed by a DOC Talk session.

Credits
Kae Oktorina
Kae Oktorina is a media artist whose practice explores the relationships between humans and nature, sensorial perception, and cultural memory. Her work often involves video, animation, and experimental media to create immersive experiences that question how we inhabit landscapes—physically, emotionally, and historically. While her previous projects have focused on environmental narratives and the clash between natural and built worlds, in Warne Mata, Kae shifted her attention to history: specifically, how the legacy of colonialism continues to shape identity, memory, and belonging. Although she had no prior experience with full-spectrum cinematography, she embraced the technique for its ability to reveal unseen layers of reality—much like the hidden stories within the gemstones themselves.
Christopher Tym
Christopher Tym is an artist-filmmaker whose practice explores hybridity, perception, and the complexities of navigating virtual and physical worlds. His work often blurs the boundaries between documentary and fiction, combining affective editing, layered sound design, and speculative narrative structures. With a background in animation and experimental film, Christopher is particularly interested in how storytelling can challenge linear time and fixed perspectives—especially in relation to ecocentrism and diasporic identities.
