Mannus Franken

Mannus Franken (2 February 1899 – 1 August 1953) was a Dutch filmmaker who played an important role in the development of Indonesian cinema. He made his debut as a writer before working with Joris Ivens in producing two documentary films. In 1934 he was called to the Dutch East Indies by Albert Balink to help with the production of ''Pareh'' (1936). Franken stayed in the Indies until before World War II, making newsreels. After the war he returned to the country and continued this work. In 1949 Franken returned to the Netherlands, where he made another film before his death.
==Biography==
Franken was born on 2 February 1899 in Deventer, the Netherlands. As a youth he worked as a writer-cum-director before moving to Paris in 1925; in Paris he wrote on the experimental films being produced in France, and in 1928 he directed the stageplay ''D 16 Mensch en Machine'' (''D 16 Man and Machine''), based on the story "Donogoo Tonka" by Jules Romains.
The following year, working with Joris Ivens, Franken directed the shorts ''Regen'' (''Rain'') and ''Branding''. Around this time he made another short, entitled ''Jardin du Luxembourg'' (''Garden of Luxembourg''), and during the early 1930s he directed several other films.〔 Also in the early 1930s he was active in the Netherlands as a member of the Filmliga, a Dutch cinema club (1927–1933) founded by Menno ter Braak and Henrik Scholte, and as the chairman of the Association for Educational and Development Films; with the Amsterdam Liga he ran the De Uitkijk Theatre.〔
Franken, with Dutch-Indonesian journalist and filmmaker Albert Balink and the ethnic Chinese Wong brothers, started the production company Java Pacific Film in the 1930s in what was then the Dutch East Indies, which produced ''Pareh'' (1936), an ethnographic film considered a forerunner for the "Indonesia Indah" films. Balink had brought Franken to the country to ensure its artistic quality. Franken helped with the cinematography and screenwriting and, for greater commercial viability, was given top billing. However, the film was a commercial flop and bankrupted its producers, including Franken.
While making these feature films he also worked with the Dutch Indies Film Syndicate (, or ANIF), owned by Balink, and directed newsreels. During this time Franken may have been involved in the production of ''Terang Boelan'', a feature film directed by Balink. The Indonesian historian Misbach Yusa Biran writes that Franken was not involved as ''Terang Boelan'' involved less ethnographic work, while the American film scholar Karl G. Heider writes that Franken co-directed the film. In 1938 Franken directed the semi-documentary film ''Tanah Sabrang'', based on the writiings of Adrian Jonkers and promoting emigration from Java to Sumatra.〔 By the time World War II broke out Franken was already in the Netherlands; ANIF had closed in 1940.〔
After the war, Franken returned to the Indies – since proclaimed an independent nation named Indonesia – to make films for the Netherlands Government Information Service (). Franken returned to the Netherlands in 1949, producing a film for the government. He died on 1 August 1953 in Lochem.〔〔
