During the press conference, Archie Hekagery emphasized that the film is more than just a comedy-drama.
"Pasukan 1000 Janda is not just a drama with a touch of comedy, but also raises themes of women's strength, solidarity, and resilience in facing social stigma. It reminds us that 500 years ago there was the figure of Malahayati as a great war commander," said Archie.
In line with that, Producer Yuda Wirafianto stressed the message of struggle that the film aims to convey.
"The message is that our nation is a nation that never gives up. And this becomes a legacy that Indonesian women are not fragile women who can be underestimated. In reality, Indonesian women are great and admirable people. This film does not preach, but it reminds us all," said Yuda.
With a cross-generational cast and a relevant story, _Pasukan 1000 Janda_ is expected to be both entertaining and inspiring.
PASUKAN 1000 JANDA: will be in cinemas starting November 12, 2026, at XXI, CGV, Cinepolis, and other theater chains across Indonesia.
