Buta
is a short film drama written and directed by Siti Nur Jannah, in which it
becomes her first directed short film. A story that depicts the love-life
struggle of Medina (starring Elliesya) and her abusive love partner Kufiz
(starring Hafizul), the film centralizes on the repercussions that abuse can
have towards an individual.
Siti Nur Jannah’s debut short film
focuses on the facade of a man who portrays; love, care and companionship
towards a female partner in the eyes of many, yet takes a different role behind
closed doors of the world. The intriguing aspect of this film, is Medina’s
constant act of denial towards her abusive boyfriend, in which she stays in the
relationship for the sake of love. As she is confronted by her friend Elly (starring
Hanum), she takes Elly by the hand and sweetly yet hurtfully tells her friend
that the man who has created the bruises on her body, loves her no matter what.
Overall, audiences can observe and
interpret the film with familiarity of the abusiveness that has been
circulating around this world. In this film, we will see the life of a girl,
confused and puzzled, by her decision to either stay for the man who she thinks
loves her, or leave for the sake of her own safety, dignity and care.
