Nada dan Dakwah

Nada dan Dakwah (1991)

The people of Pandanwangi village are upset at news that their land will be appropriated by a large conglomerate. Conflict over the land emerges and escalates between the villagers and representatives of the conglomerate. The villagers have come to view the situation as more of a matter of morality than of land ownership after finding out that a bar and billiards center will be built there. The head of the village’s Islamic boarding school, H. Murad, who is assisted by H. Rhoma, attempts to influence the villagers to refuse to sell their land. Eventually, the charismatic religious leader KH Zainuddin MZ succeeds in mediating the conflict, and even influences the conglomerate owner, Bustomi (WD. Mochtar), to rethink his plans. The land conflict theme of this film is interesting in that it reflects the social issues arising out of the rapid pace of development of the time. This may be Rhoma Irama’s best film, even though it was not very popular.

Production

Nada dan Dakwah was directed by Chaerul Umam for PT Bola Dunia Film based on an original screenplay by Asrul Sani. Umam, who had a reputation for directing films with Islamic themes, had been collaborating with Sani since Al Kautsar in 1977. Cinematography was handled by Harry Susanto, with artistic direction by Teuku Rusian. Music was handled by Didi AGP, with sound editing by S. Edi Pramono. The film was edited by Effendi Doytha.

Irama was also cast as a protagonist of Nada dan Dakwah. He had previously established a reputation as an actor in musical films with Islamic themes. These had generally featured a love story with an admirer, something absent in Nada dan Dakwah. As co-protagonist, Zainuddin M. Z., a popular preacher whose sermons were widely disseminated through radio, was cast. Both performers played themselves.
