About Exalted Guest
An impending visit from a VIP causes chaos and confusion in the small, isolated village of Sukaslamet. Things take a hilarious turn when the herbal medicine seller is mistaken for the exalted guest and is accorded a ceremonial welcome in the most elaborate Javanese style.
Directed by Usmar Ismail, Exalted Guest leans on a strong ensemble — Mas'ud Pandji Anom, Nina Amora, Tina Melinda — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.
The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about drama titles of 1955.
