Of Love and Eggs (2004)
Director: Garin Nugroho
Movie review
From Time Out London
As memorable for its humanist warmth as it is for Nugroho’s deceptively light comedic touch, this lovingly directed movie inhabits the lives of a loose, intersecting group of Jakarta residents, notably those connected to a local market and an Islamic school, where plans are being hatched to build a new mosque. Nugroho has mounted all the action in a studio set and delivers an intimate drama which broaches difficult social, religious and generational issues with unusual subtlety and insight, garnering uniformly fine performances from a group actors of a wide age-range. A fine film.Author: WH
