Synopsis
The spirit of Merdeka – remember the sacrifices made by our founding fathers to free us from colonialism. Today we must cherish and protect the freedom we have inherited – by upholding the country’s integrity we share the responsibility of ensuring a better future for every Malaysian, with a basic right to education. We Malaysians owe it to our founding fathers to stay united, bound together by our national language and heritage.
Four young Malaysians, Salmi, Razak, Ani and Angee have been assigned to do a picture book of ‘1957’. While two of them grudgingly carry out the request made by the publisher, Zahari. One of them takes on the role enthusiastically. Along the way, they find themselves immersed in the characters, emotional moments, identifying with and finding meaning in the struggle of ‘1957’. They weave the story of independence by transporting themselves back to the past. Ordinary Malaysians who fell in love, and found their love for the country override their personal emotions. The present characters find new meaning to ‘Merdeka’.
一套很不错的电影。。导演在戏中带出了很多马来人不一样的想法。。很多马来影坛的重量级人物(etc..who want to be a millionaire的主持人的那滴眼泪。。赞!!)。。虽然在戏中只是配角,但演技真的一流。。Dato Onn Jaafar和tunku abdul rahman的角色挺出色的。。。两位主角有他们的精髓带出来。。maya karin 不但美, 而且有演技。。他们的爱情故事挺琼瑶的。。。哈哈。。至于故事吗。。通过这套电影, 终于搞清楚发生在dato onn和tunku abdul rahman的事情。。毕竟我们中学的历史书没有很清楚交代当时所发生的事情。。
