Wiki.
Tamu Agung (Exalted Guest) is a 1955 Indonesian dramatic comedy film directed by Usmar Ismail. It stars Cassin Abbas, Nina Amora, M. Pandji Anom, and Chitra Dewi. The satirical political comedy, about the anticipation of the visit of a dignitary to a small isolated village in East Java, was critically acclaimed, although it was disliked by the government. The film, produced under the Perfini banner, was shot by cinematographer Max Tera. This movie is set in the modern day (the 1950s).
