She starred in 42 classic movies, was hailed as ‘The Queen of Indonesian Horror’ and crowned ‘Asia’s Most Popular Actress’. But who was Suzzanna Martha Frederika van Osch, long-beloved by the Asian world as Suzzanna yet virtually unknown outside it?
Through exclusive interviews with family, colleagues, filmmakers, and historians, as well as clips from her classic films, director David Gregory (Enter the Clones of Bruce) unearths the legacy of the Scream Queen who has begun to emerge as one of the most compelling icons in cinema history.
David Gregory’s brand new documentary doesn’t just tell Suzzanna’s story with a series of talking heads, it allows the subjects to become part of the narrative itself, eventually taking the film in a direction that those of us unfamiliar with her story will find shocking, compelling and unbelievable in equal measures.
