Yuni is a 2021 internationally co-produced drama film, written and directed by Kamila Andini. It stars Arawinda Kirana in the title role.
The film had its world premiere at the 2021 Toronto International Film Festival in September 2021,[2] where it was named the winner of the Platform Prize competition.[3] It was selected as the Indonesian entry for the Best International Feature Film at the 94th Academy Awards.[4]
Yuni, a bright high school student, wants to attend university. She gains notoriety as she rejects a proposal by a man she barely knows. She rejects a second proposal, triggering concern relating to the local belief that if two proposals are rejected, a person will never marry. She finds her love for poetry as an escape from the reality. Until one day, her literature teacher comes to her house and becomes the third man to propose to her.[5]
