Through visual media, this project educated the community about the need for public awareness to prevent the spread of messages that legitimize harmful ideology that supports violent extremism. Film is one of the ways to synergize works to prevent the spread of radicalism and religion-based violence. Because people often learn best from observation, we hope that the movie was an effective tool for education.

There was a lack of educational content that presents real-life stories through about how people are inevitably exposed to religious and violent extremism. Upon its success, this project served as a guide for conducting campaigns and education to counter violent extremist narratives.

The main activities of this project were film production, a community screening and a discussion. The film category was a nonfiction short film, the subject is a reality-story, and the film’s duration is 20 minutes. There were 250 beneficiaries of the film screening and discussion activities about the film were held in six locations around Indonesia. The film garnered a lot of positive feedback from those who viewed it and other stakeholders.
