Les’ Copaque and KRU Studios recently revealed their latest collaboration, upcoming children’s film Upin & Ipin: Jeng Jeng Jeng.

Some of us are still dazed over proceedings at Festival Filem Malaysia ke-27 last weekend. Quite a fair bit happened that night – we guess it was a healthy mix of positive and negative – and days later, we’re still gushing about things at the office. We were due to write a comprehensive report about the event, but thanks to the wonderful Wendi Sia who provided live coverage via Twitter, it’s probably no longer necessary. Instead, you’re all getting this piece.

This is a tasty compliment sandwich made with utmost love for our film industry and the FFM27 committee.

That’s right guys, there’s an explosion of talent coming soon to Youtube and it’s called Nadia Ngidam Cili!

But first, we really need to do some shameless name-dropping. Junad Md. Nor, Razaisyam Rashid, Beto Kusyairy, Razaisyam Rashid, Liyana Jasmay, Azhan Rani, Jay Iswazir… The list goes on. Nadia Ngidam Cili is a short film trilogy based on Malaysian short stories (picked from Fixi, Lejen Press and Dubook Press) that is due for release on Youtube soon so it goes without saying lah that this will be free to all.

With only hours left before Maya Karin has to pack for an overseas trip, The Daily Seni found ourselves in her car for a quick chat. The gracious actress was kind enough to let us accompany her to her 5pm appointment just so we could ask her a few questions.

Amidst the Petaling Jaya traffic rush, we got her to reflect on her most recent nod from Festival Filem Malaysia (FFM) among other things pertaining to her status as a household name when it comes to the Malaysian film industry.
