Abstract
The purpose of this study is: (1) to describe the benefits of literary ecranization as a mass media; (2) to describe the strategic role of Indonesian literary ecranization in the nation and character building; (3) to reveal the constraints of literary ecranization in the development of Indonesian culture. This study uses a qualitative descriptive method with a phenomenological approach; data are collected by using library techniques, observation, and in-depth interviewing; data analysis is performed using a content analysis technique and critical analysis. The results of this study are as follows: (1) literary ecranization is a potential mass media favored by the public given its great audiovisual power; (2) the strategic role of Indonesian literary ecranization in the development of a nation’s character is advantageous in offering life values (social, cultural, moral, psychological, gender, and religious) and its allure in educating and entertaining the audience without patronizing; (3) the constraints of literary ecranization in the development of a nation’s character are: literary ecranization as an audiovisual media often loses the literary essence of the original literary work; not many filmmakers are able to achieve literary essence in ecranization.
