LINE-UP:

THE RIVER THAT RAN RED (23 min)
Dir: Shanjhey Kumar Perumal
A historical tragic event which took place in Parit Buntar, Perak 40 years ago made an ordinary man a decorated national hero overnight. Based on a Director/Writer Shanjey Kumar Perumal true account of his grandfather, this documentary is narrated via an interesting theatre performance and stunning visuals.


HANGER (13 min)
Directed by Charlotte Lim
Like in a fairy tale. A dreamy girl or young woman in a cottage. Cockroaches seem to be the only thing hampering her. She fights back with a coat hanger. Quite stylish, a coat hanger. Carefully made. Beautifully lit. Deftly played. Perfect poetic cinema.(Synopsis from International Film Festival Rotterdam.)

CHEES CAKE! (10 min)
Directed by Aliff Ihsan Rahman
Mengisahkan MEEN (8) yang kempunan untuk makan cheesecake apabila tidak dapat merasanya sejak pertama kali bertemu dengan makanan itu. Sejak hari tersebut, MEEN berusaha dan bertekad ingin merasa makanan itu.

BIHUN (5 min)
Directed by Amir Hafizi
Prolific screenwriter Amir Hafizi makes his directorial debut in this domestic drama about a politician and her husband. Made for last year’s KL 48 Hour Film Challenge.

MERAH (5 min)
Directed by Nadia Khan & Fasyali Fadzly
Romantic drama set in a café, and where not everything is black and white. By the prolific outfit Idebewe Productions.

KASHAF (10 min)

Melor was in dilemma caught between reality and fantasy world after the death of her mother

EMPTY (11 min)
Directed by Audrie Yeo
Made in Malaysia for London. This was a collaborative project between Malaysian filmmaking students and an acting student in London. A feminist cine-poem which involves some difficult mathematical problems. Oh, and Vaseline.

FRAGMENTS (6 min)
Directed by Sidney Chan.
"Fragments" is an experimental short film that was conceived on impulse when some Australian friends came to Malaysia on holiday. Shot mainly on Jonker Street, Melaka, with the poignant last line: “Where do we go from here?”


3057: MY EARTH (4 min)
Directed by Gary Chong
Set in the future of 3075, a mother presents her daughter on her 18th birthday, the gift of a virtual reality trip to revisit the past earth from generations ago....where the earth was still abundant with "green". Like AVATAR, starring Mislina Mustaffa instead of Sigourney Weaver.


LAST FRAGMENTS OF WINTER (23 min)
Directed by Edmund Yeo
A Malaysian film student travels to Japan to study and is amazed by many things. About a girl in the snow, for instance. Shown at various international film festivals including Dubai and Rotterdam.
