This research aims to: (1) reveal how multimodal features construct fear emotions in an Indonesian drama film, and (2) explore the multimodal interactions that play a role in creating these emotions. Through a qualitative descriptive approach, this study analyzes the film Bebas, a popular daily life drama in the last five years. Multimodal feature analysis refers to the theory of Baldry \& Thibault (2006), while multimodal interaction uses the theory of Norris (2004), focusing on a combination of visual, verbal, nonverbal, and narrative elements that create the emotion of fear. The research results indicate that an Indonesian drama film utilizes various multimodal features, namely (1) visual images consisting of: panning (moving), stationary (still), medium kinesics action tempo, horizontal perspective consisting of frontal, and medium close shot (object framing from the shoulders up), (2) facial expressions, namely open mouth, and (3) gestures, namely hands holding something, (4) soundtrack with a fast tempo and accompanied by a male soloist. The identified multimodal interactions include the context taking place outdoors, the density of modes using visual modes, the foreground being the main character and the background being the school environment, and the means being nonverbal modes to convey fear and surprise. The implications of this research indicate that understanding the interaction of multimodal features in film can be applied theoretically and practically. Theoretically, this study is based on the confirmation of multimodal theory, the importance of the role of context, and the dynamics of interaction. Meanwhile, practically, this study implements the development of a multimodal analysis model, develops new metrics, utilizes learning technology, and develops media literacy skills.} }
