Suzzanna

[1] Suzzanna, who was an Indo of mixed Javanese-Minahasan-Sundanese-German-Dutch heritage, was born Suzzanna Martha Frederica Van Osch on 13 October 1942 in Buitenzorg (now Bogor), West Java, as the youngest child and daughter of the six children of Johanna Bojoh (1915–1996), a singer, and Willem Van Osch (1910–1942), a stage actor from the Netherlands.

[6] Advertising for this film emphasized Suzzanna and her role, drawing on the previous success of Tiga Dara by touting her as the next Indriati Iskak.

[9] Tidar Jaya subsequently produced Beranak dalam Kubur (1971), Bumi Makin Panas (1973), and Napsu Gila (1973); all of these featured Suzzanna.

In this film, Suzzanna portrays a woman who travels to Jakarta in search of her husband, only to fall victim of a human trafficking ring.

Controversial for its frank depictions of sexuality and coarse language, the film was banned in Bandung but nonetheless the most popular domestic production of the year.
