15Malaysia short film trailers

15Malaysia, an independent film project by Pete Teo consisting of 15 short films by 15 Malaysian film makers. The films covers a wide range of socio political issues that in my opinion, does hit the mark for us Malaysians. How do I say this? These films shows the colorful & cynically funny life of an everyday Malaysian. Really.

The films are:

  • Meter by Lim Benji. It's a taxi driver story starring Khairy Jamaluddin. Yup, the infamous @KhairyJ.
  • One Future by Tan Chui Mui. Not sure where this film intends to go, but it features Tian Chua.
  • House by Linus Chung. This trailer hits the mark for me.
  • Halal by Liew Seng Tat. Feels like a "why the chicken cross the road?" kind of story.
  • Gerhana by James Lee. Another James Lee trait?
  • Lollipop by Nam Ron. Love the trailer soundtrack. Very imaginative.
  • The Son by Desmond Ng. Ousted former minister Zaid Ibrahim plays a part in this film.
  • The Tree by Amir Muhammad and featuring the wisdom of Islamic life from Tuan Guru Nik Aziz.
  • Healthy Paranoia by Khairil M Bahar. This one should be good I think. Malaysian Minister of Health made a cameo appearance.
  • Lumpur by Kamal Sabran. I think this should be another nationalism film.
  • Slovak Sling by Woo Ming Jin. Harith Iskandar potrays a gay man. Lol. Must be funny.
  • Potong Saga by Ho Yuhang.
  • Chocolate by the late Yasmin Ahmad.

15Malaysia is due to launch on 17th August 2009, which is just next week. Would love to see how that turns out. Good job Pete! Follow & receive updates from their Facebook and Twitter page.
