KUCUMBU TUBUH INDAHKU (2018) dir. Garin Nugroho In a village in Java, Juno, a pre-teen abandoned by his father, joins a Lengger ( a traditional Javanese dance) centre where men assume feminine appearances but the political and social upheaval in Indonesia forces him on the road, meeting remarkable people on his journey. Loosely based on real life dancer Rianto. (link in title)
