SELAMAT HARI RAYA AND HAPPY NEW YEAR

DOCUMENTED, In search of reality.....I have found fantasy

This is not my new year resolution but just a note about my new production

I have heard a lot of people talking about reality in film!?....in what form of reality? even the medium itself is a fantasy. that is for sure.

I have started this production with a fantasy and then went out to capture the make belief reality. confusing? yes! I have been through a lot to discover this.

'TAK MELAYU HILANG DI LONDON' is what I am looking for but what I get is 'THE PATHFINDERS'.

This is a documentary about souls in search of a reason in life. A simple story i guess...

Some photographers take reality... and impose the domination of their own thought and spirit. Others come before reality more tenderly and a photograph to them is an instrument of love and revelation.
Ansel Adams

In feature films the director is God; in documentary films God is the director.
Alfred Hitchcock


luckily I have only one god to caters all... and M. Nasir sang it pretty well

Merahnya tekadmu
Mewarnakan kalam
Memancarkan wajah-wajah
Yang berupa-rupa dalam kesatuan

Menyanyilah.. la..la..la..
Bersajaklah.. la.. la..la..'

... and here is what it has becoming after fragmented now reveal the pathfinders....

whats next?....
I will be looking at one Jews family in black and white, from an eyes of a Jewish director through my viewfinder.
