Biography
Hakim was born on 25 December 1956 in Kuala Tungkal,
Originally, Hakim did not intend to be an actress, but an architect or psychologist. However, she was cast in
The following year, Hakim starred in another Karya-directed film, Kawin Lari (Elope). The experience gave her a greater understanding of acting, causing her to "see life from a different perspective in studying [her] character." It was followed by a role in 1976's Sesuatu yang Indah (Something Beautiful), directed by Wim Umboh. Sesuatu yang Indah was the first film in which Hakim used her own voice; previously, her voice had been dubbed by Titi Qadarsih in previous movies; Hakim's own voice had been considered "too heavy."[6] The next year, she starred in Badai Pasti Berlalu, appearing on the poster and the cover of the soundtrack album.[7]
Hakim presented 14 Indonesian films at the
One of these was
Hakim screened her first work as a producer, Daun di Atas Bantal (Leaf on a Pillow) during Un Certain Regard at Cannes ten years later.[4] When producing the film, she chose young director Garin Nugroho, whom she perceived to be highly talented; she also took the leading role. During production, she made a mistake that required the reshooting of all footage. In an attempt to cut expenses, she had saved all cans of exposed film to send to the developing lab at once; the lab then notified her that a technical fault with the camera had rendered all of it unusable and that the problem could have been detected earlier had she sent each can as it was filmed.[3]

In 2020, Hakim won the Citra Award for Best Supporting Actress for her role in Joko Anwar's horror film Impetigore.[14] The film is the first horror film of Hakim's career.[15]
Activism
Beginning in the early 2000s, Hakim became an activist, with a focus on education. After the 2004 Indian Ocean earthquake and tsunami, she went on numerous humanitarian trips to Aceh.[10][4] She later founded the Christine Hakim feature, a foundation to promote public education about autism. She has urged the government to eliminate misconceptions regarding autism, calling the refusal to accept autistic students in public schools "a violation of human rights".[12]
Personal life
In 2000, Hakim married Dutchman Jeroen Lezer, an actor, film sales director and writer. They live in Cibubur, East Jakarta, with Hakim's mother and daughter Shena;[10] Bruce Emond of The Jakarta Post describes her home as being "like a lush secret garden amid the creeping suburbia".[6]
Hakim generally avoids discussing her personal life with the press and is unwilling to discuss topics that are not of public interest. In 1992 she said that "90 percent of the journalists here aren't interested in [her] films, they just want to know about [her] private life."[10]
In 2009, Hakim's father died due to hydronephrosis and several complications at the age of 79, and was buried at Tanah Kusir Cemetery.[16]
Legacy
Hakim has been described as the "grande dame of Indonesian cinema"[4] as well as "Indonesia's foremost actress".[6] She has also received a lifetime achievement award at the Cinemanila International Film Festival.[17] Hakim has refused a position on the Asia Pacific Screen Awards numerous times, due to being unable to reconcile her schedule with the awards.[3]
