Horror Film ‘The Land of Jinn’ Is First Indonesia-Kyrgyzstan Co-Production, Unveiled at Tokyo Gap-Financing Market

Indonesia and Kyrgyzstan have launched their first film co-production, the supernatural horror film *The Land of Jinn*, unveiled at the Tokyo Gap-Financing Market. Directed by Kevin Rahardjo, it follows an Indonesian woman who travels to Kyrgyzstan seeking a healer who may save her unborn baby, drawing her into the region’s world of jinn.

The film is based partly on legends of King Solomon’s command over jinn and was shot in Kyrgyzstan’s Issyk-Kul region and Jakarta. It is in post-production, uses English, Indonesian and Kyrgyz, and is planned for release in 2027. Its producers are seeking financing and distribution partners in Tokyo, and hope the project can encourage further Asian co-productions.
