Unyil : The original puppet from Indonesian


Remember when I was a child, there was a a television show that I always waiting on Sunday morning. that time my brother and me, from morning would have a bath and getting ready in front of the television to see Si Unyil. Should not be left behind anyway. Hahaha
What I remember from Si Unyil is he likes to wear gloves and cap, he's a diligent, intelligent, likes to help his friend, but still as a child that still too often make mistakes. How he and his friends are tempted to steal from the cashew tree belongs to Pak Raden, and how when Si Unyil late for school. Very humanist (I am aware this when I have for now). Besides the Unyil, there are many more characters, there are Bapak and Ibu and his sister, Kinoy, then Ucrit and Usro, a close friend of Unyil. Melani also a clever and Cuplis a fearful, but his sister a lot (and all beginning with the letter C). No more Pak Raden, a character who is very stingy blue-blooded and very lazy communal work, with a handlebar mustache, he was feared by the children, let alone trying to steal his guava, very opposite in character with Bu Raden who gentle, kind and generous. There Pak Ogah and Pak Ableh, unemployment who is very lazy, it works just hang out on the post patrol while looting children. Then there was another figure very strong character, she is Mbok Bariah, with a thick accent Madura, she around the village to selling rujak. to forget, the name of his village is Sukatani Village, the village is still beautiful and close to the forest. Actually there are many characters and other figures anyway, just later on too long if written one at a time (say just lazy).
Puppet's films produced by PPFN is very popular in common people. As a children's films, many of the values ​​that can be quoted to practiced in everyday life. As an entertainment, the film is also very strong embedded value of education, moral and social ethics. The story is simple and unpretentious portrait of society at that time. Contrast to the present, although Si Unyil figures presented back, like the show "Laptop Si Unyil", still remains less competitive than any other movie characters. Perhaps, vacuum children's film that had plagued television in Indonesia to be the cause. With the flood of imported children's films, particularly Japanese anime, of course, very filling a vacuum in children's films earlier. In addition, the number of impressions that a growing number also be the cause. Past, the means of entertainment is very limited, there is only one radio and television stations. Impressions were present could certainly be the focus of entertainment available. Compared to today, with a flood of entertainment facilities, either on television, radio, and other media such as internet and gadgets, it can be ascertained, the focus of impressions will be very divided.
Sometime there will be movie characters of children, especially as Si Unyil, which can become an idol for children of Indonesia. Defeating other figures such as Upin and Ipin, Shaun the sheep, Spongebob or the other. Maybe someday there will be create puppet replacement for Si Unyil and become the new idol. Hopefully!
