The flow of global information, without geographical boundaries, in the geo-cybernetic era can lead to cultural homogenization, posing a challenge for local communities to maintain unique identities. Paradoxically, broadcasting technology, a medium of globalization, can also serve as a strategic instrument for strengthening local culture. This study examines how the documentary film Batik Sukapura by Balaka Sinematografi, Tasikmalaya, served as a medium of cultural literacy that reinforced the local community’s cultural resilience. A qualitative case study approach was employed. Data were collected through in-depth interviews with filmmakers, cultural observers, craftspeople, and younger generations. The results show that (1) The Batik Sukapura documentary originated from filmmakers’ concerns about the survival of Batik Sukapura, feared to fade over time due to insufficient promotion; (2) the film conveys the philosophical values of Sukapura Batik through an accessible audio-visual narrative; (3) it contributes to cultural resilience by functioning as a digital archive, catalyst for cultural participation, and bridge for intergenerational communication. This study concludes that documentary films are an effective form of geocultural broadcasting in the cybernetic era. They function as “digital anchors” reinforcing local identity amid global trends, showing that cyber communication can be harnessed for preservation rather than erosion.
