Description
Ananda Putriani and co-authors study, in a 2026 paper, how filming a ritual in West Sumatra shapes the meaning of that rite. The Tabuik rite is a valued part of local identity and memory, yet past work focused mostly on policy and saving the rite itself. The team joined the rite, spoke with practitioners, and built a documentary film.
Four themes stood out in their study of the filming process. They cover origin and loss, quiet grief among youth, hopes passed between generations, and duty lived in daily life. Filming, they argue, is not a neutral record: it selects, negotiates, and rebuilds what the rite means for viewers today.
