ACKNOWLEDGMENT

Foremost, I want to offer this endeavor to ALLAH SWT for enlightening me in passing

every chapter, the strength, peace of mind and good health in order to finish this thesis. I am

also thankful to the Prophet Muhammad Saw, for teaching me the right way to live.

This thesis is expected to contribute in the academic field, namely as a reference for

broadcasting study especially documentary film. As a student of broadcasting I also have a

dream to became a director. I believe that through film, the director can communicate with the

audience and documentary is about the effort to convince, persuade, or predispose masses to

a particular view of the actual world I occupy.

This thesis becomes a reality with the kind support and help of many individuals. I
