"Have you ever watched a movie and experienced a profound connection to it, as
if it was tailor-made just for you? That's how I felt watching Disney's
animated film,
Raya and the Last Dragon.
The second Raya appeared on-screen, memories of the remarkable women I grew up
with came rushing in a flood: my stubborn cousins, my nurturing mother, my best
friend from uni (who acts like my mother), and above all, myself.
As an Indonesian seeing aspects of my culture showcased in Hollywood, it filled
me with such joy to witness cultural representation done right. The story
touched my heart, fulfilling the dream my inner-child always wanted:
a Disney
princess I could finally relate to."
