Synopsis

Soe Hok Gie is an activist who lived in the sixties. Set in the darkest era of Indonesian modern history, GIE is an interpretation of what happened based on his journal. He is a history student when his world stretches between politics and personal life. A critical young man, he sounds his great concerns about his collapsing nation. Yet, he is sensitive and romantic. He loves to explore the mountains, to admire the great beauty of nature. His life is a clash between the high drama of national political events and the small world of friendship and romance. He is falling apart when he sees that his constant battle for justice and truth gives labor to another dictatorial regime, and caused the massacre of millions suspected communists, including his childhood friend. He continues to fight but his uncompromised idealism drives people away. His best friends left him. The woman he loves rejects him. From time to time, nature is a place where Gie finds peace and it's where his life comes to an end. Gie dies on the summit of the highest mountain in Java, just a day before his 27th birthday.

The choice of musical themes in the film does not enhance the narrative or help to create a more immersive experience for the audience. Instead of enriching the storytelling, the soundtrack at times feels like an afterthought, lacking the power to evoke the necessary emotions.

The lack of thematic consistency and cohesion in the soundtrack of Gie makes it difficult for viewers to connect with the protagonist's inner turmoil and external challenges. The music fails to establish a strong emotional resonance, leaving the audience feeling detached from the unfolding drama and historical events portrayed in the film.
