“My Own Last Supper,” an Indonesian film about the Chinese diaspora, is eyeing a Chinese theatrical release after its world premiere in competition at the Shanghai International Film Festival.

Producer Lyza Anggraheni said the production team is actively seeking Chinese distribution partners, with the film designed from the outset to reach mainland audiences.

“We knew this would be a pioneering film focusing on Chinese-Indonesians,” said Anggraheni. “The production team is currently working hard to connect with Chinese film distributors, hoping to bring this movie officially to the Chinese market, as the film was inherently made to pass down and share the story of Chinese-Indonesians.”
