卡米拉·安迪妮，Andini was born on 6 May 1986, the eldest daughter of filmmaker Garin Nugroho. Although uninterested in cinematography for fear that she would be "work in her father's shadow", she began studying photography while still in junior high school, hoping to "capture people's life and behavior". While in senior high school her classmates often asked her father about filmmaking, questions which Andini later said "ashamed" her because she knew nothing of her father's oeuvre. She later began to become involved with several film committees. Andini completed a degree in sociology at Deakin University in Melbourne, Australia.
