Synopsis
"Replacements" depicts a Javanese family living in a fictional neighborhood in Jakarta, the capital city of Indonesia. Inspired by people and places that truly exist, they are witnesses of this congested metropolis's urban, environmental, political, and cultural transformations from about 1980 to 2020. A praise of the satisfaction of impermanent things, it tells about the dented yet peaceful transition of an old traditional village to an uprooted megapolis through three generations. This experience aims to appreciate and introspect Jakarta's recent history through the eyes of an ordinary family that most of Indonesians, from children to elder people, can identify with.

Diversion cinemaDiversion cinema has been experimenting with Virtual Reality (VR) since 2016 while welcoming visitors into its VR theater open to the public in Paris. As a partner to the world’s most prestigious festivals, Diversion cinema has developed an expertise in content reception, technical support, complex installation set-up, scenography, logistics, on-site operation, mediation, ticketing and more. In 2018, Diversion cinema opened a distribution department in order to promote immersive experiences internationally and reach a wider audience. In 2019, the company moved into the creative hub of the Centquatre-Paris, where it continues to explore ways to spread this new art form.
