DUA GARIS BIRU

Young love leads to heartbreak for two star-crossed high school students when an unplanned pregnancy has agonizing consequences for their families.

Written and directed by Gina S. Noer, this Indonesian box-office smash hit is a sensitive coming-of-age film with an edge. Tackling taboo subjects such as premarital sex and abortion, Dua Garis Biru sidesteps preachiness and remains deeply empathetic to the plight of its youthful characters.
