Viddsee Pacts with Indonesia’s RCTI+

MNC Group’s RCTI+ streaming service in Indonesia is set to launch a collection of short films from Viddsee.

The slate includes 93 shorts from Indonesian filmmakers and seven Viddsee originals. They will be rolled out in phases, beginning with a batch of 25 titles from a range of genres.

Valencia Tanoesoedibjo, managing director of RCTI+, noted, “As one of Indonesia’s major AVOD streaming services, we are constantly looking for new ways to engage with our audience who appreciate stories from Indonesia and beyond. We see Viddsee as an ideal partner that not only brings quality short films to our streaming service, but also spotlights the diversity and talent of our homegrown filmmakers.”

Derek Tan of Viddsee added, “The partnership with RCTI+ is one that fits with our mission of empowering storytellers. By providing independent filmmakers another avenue that reaches millions across Indonesia, we hope this partnership will further expand commercial opportunities and audience growth for their authentic and hyperlocal stories. We hope to continue inspiring filmmakers to pursue their passion and craft, as well as increase the public’s appreciation and awareness for local short films.”

The collection includes Errorist of Seasons, #Blessed and Becoming Girl, alongside Viddsee originals such as films from the anthology series Scene City.
