Borderless Fog (id|Kabut Berduri) is a 2024 crime thriller film directed by Edwin from a screenplay he wrote with Ifan Ismail. The film stars Putri Marino as a detective who investigates a series of murders along the Indonesia–Malaysia border, alongside Yoga Pratama and Lukman Sardi. It was released by Netflix on 1 August 2024.
The film received twelve nominations at the 2024 Indonesian Film Festival, including Best Picture.
A detective from Jakarta, Sanja, investigates a series of murders taking place at the Indonesia–Malaysia border, a remote province in Borneo that is riven with suspicion, superstition and shadowy forces where she must confront her past.
The screenplay was developed based on a research conducted by an Indonesian anthropologist and the film's composer Dave Lumenta about the Indonesia–Malaysia border in Kalimantan in the 2000s.[1] In March 2023, Netflix announced that the production had begun.[2]
Principal photography took place over five weeks in West Kalimantan, particularly along the Indonesia–Malaysia border, Lubok Antu District, Sarawak (Malaysia), and also in Bogor, West Java.[3] The production also recruited local cast and crew.[4]
Before its release, Netflix showcased the film as part of its South East Asian slate in June 2024.[5] Borderless Fog was released by Netflix on 1 August 2024.[6]
