‘Karaoke’ makes Malaysian proud....

Malaysian Film ‘Karaoke’ Selected For Cannes’ Directors’ Fortnight 

A Malaysian drama that features karaoke-video interludes and sweeping vistas of a palm-oil plantation won the Best Editor honors at the 4th Asian Film Award,  Lee Chatametikool won the award for Karaoke.

KARAOKE is Chris’ first feature-length film. Prior to this, the Sabah-born film director and media artist has received worldwide acclaim for his short film BLOCK B (2008), and the documentary KOLAM (2007).

KARAOKE, written by award-winning playwright, writer and singer-songwriter Shanon Shah, who also wrote the songs and music for the film, showcases performances from an impressive cast led by Zahiril Adzim and supported by Mislina Mustaffa, Mohammad Hariry, Amerul Affendi and Nadiya Nissa. Newcomers Zahiril Adzim and Amerul Affendi most recently wowed Malaysian audiences in the play ‘Air Con’, coincidentally also written by Shanon Shah. Another internationally renowned Sabah-born talent, artist Yee I-Lann, served as the production designer on the film.

Produced by Chris’ own Tanjung Aru Pictures, the 75-minute Malay-language KARAOKE was shot on location in Selangor over 12 days in December 2008. But even before the film was shot, KARAOKE was invited to the Berlin Film Festival’s Script Clinic in 2007, and was selected to participate in the Hong Kong-Asian Film Financing Forum (HAF) in 2008.

The Story

Set in a village estate of a Malaysian oil palm plantation … Betik returns home.

During the day, Betik helps shoot karaoke videos, while at night, he lends a hand to his reluctant mother at the family’s karaoke joint. This is the place where he falls for Anisah. A job, a love and a family. His return home comes together quickly.

But life isn’t so innocent. Everybody wants something. Subtle manipulations driven by self interest and personal desires seep through yet the songs continue to be sung. Unwavering.

The home has changed. The oil palm trees have grown in endless symmetry. The landscape rusts and the nostalgia turns.

Imperfection!....

Banyak yang berlaku kebelakangan ini. Peristiwa2 yang mendorong kita untuk menjadi lebih matang dan mengambil pengajaran dari kehidupan orang lain....

Pertama kali adalah ketidaksempurnaan kita sebagai seorang insan. Kita selalu mendengar fasa "No man is perfect". Namun begitu, masih terlalu ramai insan2 yang mengharapkan kesempurnaan dari insan lain. Sepertimana satu lagi pepatah yang menyatakan " Manusia tidak puas "......Daripada itulah kita akan tahu siapa kawan dan siapa lawan.

Ketidaksempurnaan kita la yang akan menguji mereka2 yang mengelilingi kita. Apakah benar ikhlas menyayangi kita? If they stick around after knowing the real you than baby u have your winner......

In love is all about accepting the flaws and all.

Friendship is all about knowing and accepting the imperfection of ones friend.....

Family is not a family if one cant see thru all the imperfection....

the WINNERS are......

The event started with Neil Patrick Harris singing the intro. I love the intro jokes with SteveMartin and Alec Baldwin....great job guys....:)

Weekend yang indah di KK

 

Last weekend merupakan satu weekend yang panjang dan indah bagi saya la. hehehe....Saya dan ehem2 kah kah kah....decided to go to KK for the CNY and Valentine weekend. Its a way to celebrate both celebration kot. heheehe.....

1st day 12th Feb 2010...

Smp KK pada pukul 340pm. smp jer kat airport KKT2, sy trus pegi KFC utk tunggu ehm2...:)

Dia lambat sikit coz masing2 dari destinasi berbeza. Tapi oleh krn my flight delay dia smp tak lama after i arrive. After habis kan my KFC meal, kita org pun bergerak untuk mendapatkan taxi utk ke hotel kita org.

 

We stayed at this wonderful hotel called MYNE HOTEL. Affordable and very modern. Yang penting sgt2 selesa. 

 

Selepas bersantai dan refresh kan badan, kitaorg pun bergerak utk melihat the nearest mal la dulu. Center Point adalah satu mall yang agak besar dan padat so akan jumpa byk benda2 yang worth buying la. Its not that expensive nyer tempat la. Memandangkan CNY tak lama lagi masa tu so alot of ppl buat last minute shopping.

 

Center Point

Setelah penat berlegar2 di dlm Center Point, its time for dinner la. Memandangkan masih penat so kitaorg decide utk dinner dekat2 dan cepat2 berehat. So dinner jer la dlm building tempat hotel kitaorg. 

13th Feb 2010....
The 2nd day kitaorg bgn awal sikit sbb nak pegi pulau utk menikmati keindahan pulau di Sabah. 8am dah bergerak ke Jesselton Point utk mendapatkan bot ke pulau.

 

Pengalaman menaiki bot ke pulau adalah sgt dinantikan. Saya mmg suka dan gila bot rides...hehehe I cant stop smiling sepanjang bot ride tu...Bot Ride memakan masa 30 minit cam tu la.......tak kira sgt.

 

Pulau Manukan sgt indah dan nyaman.,..hehehe tapi ada gak la scene2 yang tidak menyenangkan hati. Manusia kurang sivik ikut suka jer membuang sampah......

  

Ikan2 yang ada di Pulau Manukan....

 

Selepas mandi manda, saya pun bertanning la kan...hehehe. Bila matahari semakin terik kerana semakin ke tgh hari, kita org pun hendak bergerak pulang. dan berfoto plak kat jettr sementara tunggu bot dtg.

 

  

Samapai di KK town, kitaorg terus balik hotel untuk membersihkan diri....hehehe mandi bersabun la kan...Air laut habis melekit satu badan. Lepas tu kitaorg pun ke Growball Cineplex utk movie. Valentine's Day movie. sgt best!! 

14th Feb 2010....

Valentine's Day : Adakah perlu?

Valentine's day is just around the corner. Corner mana pun tak tau la. Yang penting sekarang nih semua orang tengah kecoh dengan valentine. Apa itu Valentine? mmmmm Mari kita selidik....Oleh kerana empunya diri yang menulis ini bukanla org yang bijak pandai so merujuk la kita pada wikipedia...hehehe
So this is what they have....

~"

Saint Valentine's Day^[1] (commonly shortened to Valentine's Day^[1][2][3]) is an annual holiday held on February 14 celebrating love and affection between intimate companions.^[1][3] The holiday is named after one or more early Christian martyrs named Valentine and was established by Pope Gelasius I in 496 AD. It is traditionally a day on which lovers express their love for each other by presenting flowers, offering confectionery, and sending greeting cards (known as "valentines"). The holiday first became associated with romantic love in the circle of Geoffrey Chaucer in the High Middle Ages, when the tradition of courtly love flourished.
Modern Valentine's Day symbols include the heart-shaped outline, doves, and the figure of the winged Cupid. Since the 19th century, handwritten valentines have largely given way to mass-produced greeting cards.^[4]

MMMM....thru my reading...~hehehe~ well its a appreciating day and to express our affection love to the ones we love. Arent we suppose to express our love everyday? mmmmm...Well here is the thing. When ur in a long term relationship, u tend to forget to express ur love verbally. Ur tired, stress about work...bla bla bla...
So Valentine is one day when u can really flash back why u love ur lover at the first place. Kan...Pandangan cinta pertama katanya.....Meraikan hari kekasih ini adalah suatu peluang yang baik dan juga alasan yang kukuh untuk melupakan hiruk piruk dan kesibukkan harian yang dilalui setiap hari.

Bagaimana untuk meng"express"kan rasa cinta itu? well its up to u. As long its from the bottom of ur heart. Jangan bottom lain plak..hehehehe....
Yang penting jangan plak stress pasal camner nak celebrate Valentine's day. It is suppose to be effortless. Do what ever u can and give whatever u can afford. It doesn't mean u have belanja besar. The thought of it is the one will be appreciated.

For me i am looking forward this year Valentine's Day. Super excited. ...hehehe....
You will know later...hehehee...
