Photocopier
PHOTOCOPIER presents a bright and capable heroine, Sur (Shenina Cinnamon), a scholarship college student in Indonesia. She's innocent, the hardworking daughter of a sympathetic mom who cooks for the family restaurant and a tyrannical and unkind father who demonstrates no respect for his dutiful daughter. She's a tech geek, but for fun she's lent her services to Mata Hari, a university theater group that's funded in part by the wealthy dad of one of its members, Rama (Giulio Parengkuan). He throws a post-performance party and lures Sur, not the partying type, with the promise of a website job with his rich father. Sur's father is skeptical and warns her not to drink alcohol, but the next morning she wakes up hungover, in someone else's shirt and with no memory of the night. Selfies she doesn't remember taking or posting, that show her drunkenness, go viral. The school administration cancels her scholarship and her dad kicks her out. Sad but indignant, she launches into cyber-detective mode, enlisting her friend Amin (Chicco Kurniawan), employee at the campus photocopy shop, to help her access the phones and computers of her theater club members. Still, no amount of evidence she presents restores her scholarship, nor does it prompt the authorities to blame anyone but her for her troubles. As tech fails them, Sur and others who were also abused team up to expose the corruption in a triumphantly analog way.
