Why watch this film?
This Indonesian drama follows the story of a student whose photos are leaked at a party. After the incident, she loses her scholarship and begins to investigate what happened. The film tackles a recurring theme in the media in recent years, which is sexual harassment. Women are victims of this every day and the virtual world has become an ally - and it is difficult to find the culprit in both scenarios. 'Penyalin Cahaya' also addresses mental health, abuse of power, and patriarchy. It is a tough movie, especially when we remember that many of the sexual predators remain. It is important to be mentally prepared before watching this well-crafted story. Incredible debut from director Wregas Bhanuteja, who makes his first feature film here. Shenina Cinnamon's performance is also worthy of praise, the film becomes more complete thanks to the actress.

Mystery
The Pale Blue Eye
Directed by Scott Cooper ("Dark Waters"), "The Pale Blue Eye" is a period thriller with elements of horror, exclusive to Netflix, based on Louis Bayard's homonymous novel. The plot follows a weary detective (Christian Bale) who must investigate a gruesome crime at a military academy: a cadet was found hanged with his heart removed. To solve the mystery, he counts on another recruit, who turns out to be none other than a young Edgar Allan Poe (Harry Melling, known as Dudley in the Harry Potter films). The pace of the film is uneven, partly due to a strict fidelity to the novel. However, the performances are wonderful (with other big names such as Gillian Anderson, Toby Jones and Lucy Boynton), and director Scott Cooper manages to create a sinister and intriguing atmosphere that does not leave us throughout the movie.

Glass Onion: A Knives Out Mystery
The premiere of 'Knives Out' was one of the biggest surprises of 2019: it was a "whodunit" that, without really re-writing the rules of the genre, delivered an engaging, witty and funny narrative of intrigue and murder. For the sequel, director Rian Johnson follows the path of not fixing what isn't broken, but simply taking what worked in the first installment and making it bigger. 'Glass Onion: A Knives Out Mystery' now takes detective Benoit Blanc to Greece, where he must investigate a new mystery with even more eccentric suspects. If you liked the first one (or just like mysteries in general), you'll love this Netflix exclusive.
