SUPPORT OUR LATEST FEATURE FILM – JOM KITA KE LAUT!

We are planning to release JOM KITA KE LAUT in Malaysian cinemas in January 2026. We realise that documentaries aren’t necessary able to attract a huge ticket buying crowd as compared to more mainstream blockbusters. But we do believe that our story carries an important message (and we also tried to make it as entertaining as we could!). So we are embarking on a mission called JOM KITA KE PANGGUNG – an initiative to buy cinema tickets to bring people to watch JOM KITA KE LAUT on the big screen.
