Negotiations to bring '' Tiga Dara '' to Malaya began soon after its release , and the film was exported , again to commercial success , in exchange for the import of the Malayan film '' Mega Mendung '' ( '' Cloudy Skies '' ) . In the late 1950s the film was shown in several Italian cities , including Rome , as well as in Yugoslavia . After Floris Ammannati , director of the 1959 Venice Film Festival , saw the Rome screening , he invited Ismail to show '' Tiga Dara '' in Venice . Ismail did so , though he considered the screening to be unsuccessful . '' Tiga Dara '' was screening in Netherlands New Guinea by August 1960 and in Suriname by August 1963
