Liew Seng Tat’s highly anticipated film which has been
selected for multiple international film festivals, Lelaki Harapan Dunia, is
set to release on 27 November 2014 in Malaysian cinemas nationwide.
One of the key highlights of the night was when the director
and cast of Lelaki Harapan Dunia rally together to carry a miniature replica of
the house featured in the film in a true “gotong-royong” style. It was a
wonderful sight to behold.
Lelaki Harapan Dunia follows a series of wild mishaps that
befalls a quaint Malay village which lead to misunderstanding, false
accusations and hilarious situations. The film has a stellar line up of
Malaysian actors led by Wan Hanafi Su. It stars Harun Salim Bachik, Soffi
Jikan, Jalil Hamid and Azhan Rani among others. It is produced by Sharon Gan
and is a co-production project between Everything Films Sdn. Bhd. (Malaysia)
and Volya Films (The Netherlands), Flying Moon Filmproduktion (Germany) and
Mandra Films (France).
Lelaki Harapan Dunia had its world premiere at the Locarno
International Film Festival in August 2014. In September 2014, it had its North
American premiere at the Toronto International Film Festival followed by Asian
Premiere at Nara International Film Festival in Japan. Its festival run
continued in October at Vancouver International Film Festival and Busan
International Film Festival. In November, it was selected to compete for the
NETPAC awards in both Kolkata International Film Festival and Taipei Golden
Horse Film Festival. It is currently screening at the Torino Film Festival in
Italy (21 – 29 November 2014).
