 This was the first sound film released by Tan 's , but far from the first in the Indies . The earliest sound films released in the Indies , Fox Movietone Follies of 1929 and The Rainbow Man , were both shown in 1929 . The following year , a domestic part @-@ talkie , G. Krugers ' Karnadi Anemer Bangkong , was also released , becoming the first domestic sound film . Two other directors had followed with full @-@ talkies in 1931 : The Teng Chun with Boenga Roos dari Tjikembang and the Wong brothers with Indonesia Malaise . In order to ensure the quality of the sound , Tan 's hired Krugers and his single @-@ system camera to do the cinematography and sound direction for this black @-@ and @-@ white film .
