Culture is very important for the community continuity which shared influential aspects in various activities in it.

The discussion of documentary film as a media of cultural values representation is analyzed based on a qualitative descriptive method, by combining theories of Intrinsic dan Extrinsic Elements in Film (Susanthi: 2017) and the theory of cultural values (Widyosiswoyo: 2009) to identify each of cultural values presented in “Butha Kaput” documentary film.The conclusions emphasizes that cultural values in documentary film “Butha Kaput” can be identified through 6 functions of cultural values such as: Cultural values as standard; Cultural values as a general plan in conflict resolution and decision making; Cultural values as motivational; Cultural values as adjustment; Cultural values as defensive ego and cultural values as knowledge and self-actualization, in which those were identified based on the analysis of intrinsic and extrinsic elements in the documentary film “Butha Kaput”
