Children make up almost a third of Indonesia's population, but why are there so few domestic children's films?

UNICEF data shows that one-third of Indonesia's population is children and is the fourth largest in the world. But ironically, the Film Censorship Institute (LSF) published in 2022 that movies classified as all-ages (SU)-meaning that children can watch-mostly come from abroad. Moreover, the LSF survey in 2023 found that only 46 percent of Indonesian children watch age-appropriate movies.
These alarming facts led us to found Kelap Kelip. We do not want to only be a production house for children’s films, but also make children's films an educational tool without losing their entertainment value. Through Kelap Kelip, we also want to build a positive ecosystem for filmmakers, activists, and children's films enthusiasts.

Kelap Kelip Background

About Us

Kelap Kelip is a Jakarta-based production house founded in 2024. We were born as a space to build the best ecosystem for children and families, through works and media.

Kelap Kelip does not only focus on producing films, but also on creating digital content and activations that can be enjoyed by children and families.

Our first work was a children's short film entitled "Ada Hantu di Menara Merdu" (2024) which premiered at the Jogja-NETPAC Asian Film Festival 19 in Yogyakarta.

In the future, Kelap Kelip will continue to produce interesting and inspiring works for children, parents and families in Indonesia.
